+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.
+  * minor incompatible change: TRUENAME now considers the truename of
+    a file naming a directory to be the pathname with :DIRECTORY
+    component indicating that directory.
+  * minor incompatible change: a NAMED clause in the extended form of
+    LOOP no longer causes a BLOCK named NIL to surround the LOOP.  The
+    reason for the previous behaviour is unclear.
+  * 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;
+    ** SXHASH on CLOS instances now uses a slot internal to the
+       instance to return different numbers on distinct instances,
+       while preserving the same return value through invocations of
+       CHANGE-CLASS;
+    ** DEFMETHOD signals errors when methods with longer incongruent
+       lambda lists are added to generic functions;
+    ** COMPUTE-CLASS-PRECEDENCE-LIST now has a method specialized on
+       CLASS, as specified in AMOP;
+    ** COMPUTE-SLOTS :AROUND now assigns locations sequentially based
+       on the order returned by the primary method for classes of
+       class STANDARD-CLASS;
+    ** DEFINE-METHOD-COMBINATION now works with the :ARGUMENTS option.
+  * 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;
+    ** LOOP signals (at macroexpansion time) an error of type
+       PROGRAM-ERROR when duplicate variable names are found;
+    ** LOOP supports DOWNTO and ABOVE properly; (thanks to Matthew Danish)
+    ** FUNCALL of special-operators now cause an error of type
+       UNDEFINED-FUNCTION;
+    ** PSETQ now works as required in the presence of side-effecting
+       symbol-macro places;
+    ** NCONC accepts any object as its last argument;
+    ** :COUNT argument to sequence functions may be BIGNUM; (thanks to
+       Gerd Moellman)
+    ** loop-for-as-package does not require a package to be explicitely
+       specified;
+    ** LOOP WITH now treats NIL in the d-var-spec correctly as an
+       ignored binding;
+  * 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)
+  * fixed Entomotomy PEEK-CHAR-WRONGLY-ECHOS-TO-ECHO-STREAM
+    bug. (thanks to Matthew Danish)
+  * fixed bug 225: STRING-STREAM is now a class. (reported by Gilbert
+    Baumann)
+  * fixed bug 136: CALL-NEXT-METHOD no longer gets confused when
+    arguments are lexically rebound. (thanks to Gerd Moellmann and
+    Pierre Mai)
+  * fixed bug 194: error messages are now more informative when there
+    is no primary method applicable in a call to a generic
+    function. (thanks to Gerd Moellmann)
