-changes in sbcl-0.9.18 (1.0.beta?) relative to sbcl-0.9.16:
+changes in sbcl-0.9.19 (1.0.0?) relative to sbcl-0.9.18:
+  * improvement: floating point modes in effect are now saved in
+    core, and restored on startup.
+  * improvement: GET-INTERNAL-REAL-TIME now reports the time since
+    startup, not time since first call to GET-INTERNAL-REAL-TIME.
+  * improvement: SAVE-LISP-AND-DIE explicitly checks that multiple
+    threads are not running after *SAVE-HOOKS* have run.
+  * improvement: floating-point exception handling should work on all
+    POSIX platforms (thanks to NIIMI Satoshi)
+  * bug fix: compiler bug triggered by a (non-standard) VALUES
+    declaration in a LET* was fixed. (reported by Kaersten Poeck)
+  * bug fix: file compiler no longer confuses validated and already
+    dumped structurres. (reported by Kaersten Poeck)
+  * bug fix: ADJUST-ARRAY :FILL-POINTER T on an array without a
+    fill-pointer signals a type-error as required. (thanks to
+    Lars Brinkhoff)
+  * bug fix: disassemly of funcallable instances works.
+  * bug fix: single stepping on PPC.
+  * bug fix: fix thread-safety problems in the type system (generally 
+    manifesting as nonsensical errors like "STRING is a bad type specifier 
+    for sequences" or "The value 1 is not of type FIXNUM")
+  * Improvements to the Windows port:
+    ** floating point exceptions are now reported correctly.
+    ** stack exhaustion detection works partially.
+    ** more accurate GET-INTERNAL-REAL-TIME.
+    ** better RUN-PROGRAM behaviour in case of errors in the child
+       process.
+    ** PROBE-FILE now simplifies pathnames correctly.
+    ** DIRECTORY now works correctly with :WILD-INFERIORS.
+    ** DECODE-UNIVERSAL-TIME works on times before 00:00:00 January
+       1st 1970 (although time timezone data will be unreliable).
+    ** Hyperbolic functions TANH, ASINH, ACOSH, and ATANH work.
+
+changes in sbcl-0.9.18 (1.0.beta?) relative to sbcl-0.9.17:
+  * enhancement: SB-POSIX now supports cfsetispeed(3), cfsetospeed(3),
+    cfgetispeed(3), cfgetospeed(3), and related constants. (thanks to
+    Max-Gerd Retzlaff)
   * bug fix: two potential GC deadlocks affecting threaded builds.
   * bug fix: (TYPEP #\A '(NOT (MEMBER #\" #\{ #\:))) now correctly
     returns T (reported by Anton Kazennikov)
   * bug fix: the STORE-VALUE restart of CHECK-TYPE works correctly
     with non-variable places
+  * bug fix: remove a race condition in the setting of
+    funcallable-instance functions, this should make threaded CLOS
+    code more stable against memory faults.
+  * bug fix: corruption of specials when unbinding is interrupted by an
+    asynchronous unwind (reported by Hannu Koivisto)
   * improvement: the debugger will now also display local variables that
     are only used once, for code compiled with a DEBUG optimization quality
     of 2 or higher.
