   * fixed bug 142: The FFI conversion of C string values to Lisp
     string values no longer conses excessively. (thanks to Nathan
     Froyd porting Raymond Toy's fix to CMU CL)
-  * improved MOP conformance in PCL (thanks to Nathan Froyd porting
-    Gerd Moellman's work in CMU CL)
+  * began to systematize and improve MOP conformance in PCL (thanks to
+    Nathan Froyd, Gerd Moellman and Pierre Mai):
+    ** SLOT-DEFINITION-ALLOCATION now returns :CLASS, not the class
+       itself;
+    ** GENERIC-FUNCTION-ARGUMENT-PRECEDENCE-ORDER is now implemented;
+    ** FINALIZE-INHERITANCE is now called on class finalization;
+    ** DOCUMENTATION and (SETF DOCUMENTATION) now have the correct
+       argument precedence order.
   * fixed bug 202: The compiler no longer fails on functions whose
     derived types contradict their declared type.
   * DEFMACRO is implemented via EVAL-WHEN instead of IR1 translation,
     so it can be non-toplevel.
+  * The fasl file version number has changed (because of the new
+    implementation of DEFMACRO).
+  * (mostly) fixed bugs 46b and 46c: sequence functions now check, in
+    safe code, that any length requirement by their type-specifier
+    argument is valid.  The exceptions to this are described in bug
+    213.
   * fixed bugs 46h and 46i: TWO-WAY- and CONCATENATED-STREAM creation
     functions now check the types of their inputs as required by ANSI.
   * fixed bug 48c: SYMBOL-MACROLET signals PROGRAM-ERROR when an
     introduced symbol is DECLAREd to be SPECIAL.
   * fixed reading of (COMPLEX DOUBLE-FLOAT) literals from fasl files
+  * fixed bug: :COUNT argument to sequence functions may be negative
+  * fixed bug: body of DO-SYMBOLS may contain declarations
+  * fixed bug: PUSHNEW now evaluates its arguments from left to right
+    (reported by Paul F. Dietz, fixed by Gerd Moellman)
+  * fixed bug: PUSH, PUSHNEW and POP now evaluate a place given by a
+    symbol macro only once
+  * fixed printing of call frame when argument list is unavailable
+  * fixed bug: :ALLOW-OTHER-KEYS is an allowed keyword name
+  * compiler no longer signals WARNING on unknown keyword
+    :ALLOW-OTHER-KEYS
+
+changes in sbcl-0.7.10 relative to sbcl-0.7.9:
+  * minor incompatible change: PCL now records the pathname of a file
+    in which methods and the like are defined, rather than its
+    truename.
+  * more systematization and improvement of CLOS and MOP conformance
+    in PCL (thanks to Gerd Moellman and Pierre Mai):
+    ** the standard ANSI CL generic function NO-NEXT-METHOD is now
+       implemented;
+    ** DEFINE-METHOD-COMBINATION no longer signals an error for
+       primary methods with no specializers;
+    ** the MOP generic function GENERIC-FUNCTION-DECLARATIONS is now
+       implemented;
+    ** the Readers for Class Metaobjects methods CLASS-DIRECT-SLOTS
+       and CLASS-DIRECT-DEFAULT-INITARGS have been implemented for
+       FORWARD-REFERENCED-CLASSes; error reporting on
+       CLASS-DEFAULT-INITARGS, CLASS-PRECEDENCE-LIST and CLASS-SLOTS
+       has been improved;
+  * fixed some bugs, shown by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+    ** DOLIST puts its body in TAGBODY
+    ** SET-EXCLUSIVE-OR sends arguments to :TEST function in the
+       correct order
+    ** MULTIPLE-VALUE-SETQ evaluates side-effectful places before
+       value producing form
+    ** if more variables are given to PROGV than values, extra
+       variables are bound and made to have no value
+    ** NSUBSTITUTE on list arguments gets the right answer with
+       :FROM-END
+    ** ELT signals an error of type TYPE-ERROR when the index argument
+       is not a valid sequence index;
+  * fixed bug 166: compiler preserves "there is a way to go"
+    invariant when deleting code.
+  * fixed bug 172: macro lambda lists with required arguments after
+    &REST arguments now cause an error to be signalled.  (thanks to
+    Matthew Danish)
 
 planned incompatible changes in 0.7.x:
 * When the profiling interface settles down, maybe in 0.7.x, maybe
