(reverted to pre 1.0.34 behaviour) + * optimization: slightly faster ISQRT. (lp#713343) + * bug fix: better support for Solaris /bin/sh in sh-based tests. + * bug fix: TRACE behaves better when attempting to trace undefined + functions. (lp#740717) + * bug fix: missed optimizations for (FUNCALL (LAMBDA ...) ...) in comparison + to (FUNCALL #'(LAMBDA ...) ...). + * bug fix: ((LAMBDA ...) ...) forms with invalid argument counts resulted in + a compile-time error. (lp#720382) + * bug fix: forms such as (FUNCALL (FUNCTION NAME OOPS) ...) were compiled + without complaints. + * bug fix: less verbose source forms for functions from EVAL. (lp#747485) + * bug fix: sense of SLOT-BOUNDP-USING-CLASS was inverted in a MAKE-INSTANCE + optimization. (regression from 1.0.45.18/1.0.46.15) + * bug fix: package locks did not protects against compile-time side-effects + of DEFUN. (lp#675584) + * bug fix: --dynamic-space-size argument is validated more carefully. + (lp#721457) + * bug fix: memory fault from printing a malformed simple-condition. + (lp#705690) + * bug fix: redefining classes so that slot-definition classes change now + engages the obsolete instance protocol. (lp#766271) + * bug fix: constant improper lists could break source coverage recording. + (lp#767959) + * bug fix: compiling calls to eg. MEMBER with massive constant list arguments + could exhaust stack. + +changes in sbcl-1.0.47 relative to sbcl-1.0.46: + * bug fix: fix mach port rights leaks in mach exception handling code on + darwin/x86 and /x86-64. (thanks to Willem Oudshoorn for motivation and the + initial patch) + * enhancement: --script muffles style-warnings and compiler notes. (lp#677779) + * enhancement: redefinition warnings for macros from different files. (lp#434657) + * enhancement: better MACHINE-VERSION on Darwin x86 and x86-64. (lp#668332) + * enhancement: (FORMAT "foo" ...) and similar signal a compile-time warning. (lp#327223) + * enhancement: no more "in: LAMBDA NIL" messages from the compiler for forms + processed using EVAL -- now the appropriate toplevel form is reported instead. + * enhancement: more legible style-warnings for inappropriate IGNORE and IGNORABLE + declarations. (lp#726331) + * enhancement: :NOT-NULL option has been added to alien C-STRING type to indicate + that NIL/NULL is excluded from the type. + * enhancement: SB-INTROSPECT:MAP-ROOT allows mapping over pointers contained in + arbitrary objects. + * optimization: SLOT-VALUE &co are faster in the presence of SLOT-VALUE-USING-CLASS + and its compatriots. + * optimization: core startup time is reduced by 30% on x86-64. (lp#557357) + * bug fix: SB-DEBUG:BACKTRACE-AS-LIST guards against potentially leaking + stack-allocated values out of their dynamic-extent. (lp#310175) + * bug fix: attempts to use SB-SPROF for wallclock profiling on threaded + x86-64 builds caused a type-error. + * bug fix: calling COMPILE with something else than a lambda-expression as the + second argument reports a more sensible error. (lp#718905) + * bug fix: invalid combinations of :PREDICATE and :TYPE options in DEFSTRUCT + are detected. (lp#520607) + * bug fix: constant keyword argument checking didn't take :ALLOW-OTHER-KEYS + into account. + * bug fix: SLOT-BOUNDP information is correct during MAKE-INSTANCE in the + presence of (SETF SLOT-VALUE-USING-CLASS) and SLOT-BOUNDP-USING-CLASS + methods. (regression from 1.0.45.18) + * bug fix: INITIALIZE-INSTANCE :AROUND methods supplying initargs via + CALL-NEXT-METHOD work correctly. (regression from 1.0.45.19) + * bug fix: several foreign functions accepting string also accepted NIL and + consequently caused a memory fault at 0 now signal a type-error instead. + (lp#721087) + * bug fix: under rare circumstances, constraint propagation could rewrite a + variable reference to refer to a variable not in scope, causing an error + during physical environment analysis when attempting to close over the + variable. (lp#551227) + * bug fix: SIMPLE-CONDITION :FORMAT-CONTROL defaults to NIL. + changes in sbcl-1.0.46 relative to sbcl-1.0.45: * enhancement: largefile support on Solaris. * enhancement: SB-PROFILE:REPORT now supports :LIMIT and :PRINT-NO-CALL-LIST
