See documentation + for details. (thanks to Zach Beane) + * enhancement: inoccous calls to EVAL or generic functions dispatching + on subclasses of eg. STREAM no longer cause compiler notes to appear. + * enhancement: the system no longer resignals errors from --load and + --eval toplevel arguments as SIMPLE-ERRORS, which caused restarts + associated with the original error to be lost. (thanks to Ariel + Badichi) + * enhancement: :DONT-SAVE keyword argument has been added to + LOAD-SHARED-OBJECT for controlling interaction with + SAVE-LISP-AND-DIE, and UNLOAD-SHARED-OBJECT can be used to undo + the effects of an earlier LOAD-SHARED-OBJECT call. + * bug fix: ADJUST-ARRAY on multidimensional arrays used bogusly give + them a fill pointer unless :DISPLACED-TO or :INITIAL-CONTENTS were + provided.
