 changes in sbcl-0.8.13 relative to sbcl-0.8.12:
   * new feature: SB-PACKAGE-LOCKS. See the "Package Locks" section of
-    the manual for details; add :SB-PACKAGE-LOCKS in
-    customize-target-features.lisp to enable them.
+    the manual for details; for now, package locks can be disabled by
+    removing :SB-PACKAGE-LOCKS in customize-target-features.lisp, but
+    if no major problems are found then it is likely that they will be
+    compiled in unconditionally.
+  * major incompatible change: LOAD-FOREIGN and LOAD-1-FOREIGN are now
+    unsupported operators. To load a shared library into SBCL, use
+    SB-ALIEN:LOAD-SHARED-OBJECT. To load a non-shared object file,
+    link it into a shared library outside of SBCL and load it using
+    SB-ALIEN:LOAD-SHARED-OBJECT.
   * minor incompatible change: as threatened around sbcl-0.8.0, the
     home package of MOP-related symbols is now SB-MOP, not SB-PCL.
     The symbols are also exported from SB-PCL for backwards

     and :ALLOCATION :CLASS slots.

+    float exponents.  (rereported by Peter Seibel)
   * fixed a bug: #\Space (and other whitespace characters) are no
     longer considered to be macro characters in standard syntax by

   * fixed bug: it is now possible to have slots such that
     SB-MOP:SLOT-DEFINITION-ALLOCATION of the effective slot
