+changes in sbcl-1.0.7 relative to sbcl-1.0.6:
+  * MOP improvement: support for user-defined subclasses of
+    SB-MOP:SPECIALIZER has been enhanced.  The experimental interface
+    function SB-PCL:MAKE-METHOD-SPECIALIZERS-FORM, called as part of
+    the expansion of DEFMETHOD, is responsible for generating a form
+    which creates a list of specializers when evaluated.  Additional
+    functions SB-PCL:[UN]PARSE-SPECIALIZER-USING-CLASS provide
+    debugging and introspective support.
+  * minor incompatible change: the (unsupported) spinlock interface
+    has changed: free spinlock now has the value NIL, and a held spinlock
+    has the owning thread as its value.
+  * enhancement: WITHOUT-INTERRUPTS now binds ALLOW-WITH-INTERRUPTS and
+    WITH-LOCAL-INTERRUPTS as local macros. Refer to documentation string
+    for details.
+  * enhancement: name of a socket-stream is now "a socket" instead of
+    "a constant string".
+  * enhancement: SB-POSIX now supports lockf(). (Thanks to Zach Beane.)  
+  * enhancement: SB-POSIX now supports getcwd(). (Thanks to Tassilo Horn.)
+  * enhancement: SB-INTROSPECT:FUNCTION-ARGLIST shows nicer argument lists
+    for generic functions. (Thanks to Tobias C. Rittweiler)
+  * optimization: bignum printing speed has been improved by 20-40%
+    (depending on the bignum size.)
+  * bug fix: WITH-MUTEX and WITH-RECURSIVE-LOCK are now interrupt safe
+    on Linux.
+  * bug fix: the cache used by the CLOS to store precomputed effective
+    methods, slot offsets, and constant return values is now thread and
+    interrupt safe.
+  * bug fix: generic function dispatch function updating is now thread
+    and interrupt safe (in the sense that the known issues have been
+    fixed.)
+  * bug fix: ADD/REMOVE-METHOD is now thread and interrupt safe.
+  * bug fix: interning EQL-specializers is now thread and interrupt safe.
+  * bug fix: asdf systems with dependencies to the SB-POSIX or 
+    SB-BSD-SOCKETS contribs can be loaded with :FORCE T.
+
 changes in sbcl-1.0.6 relative to sbcl-1.0.5:
   * new contrib: sb-cover, an experimental code coverage tool, is included
     as a contrib module.
