   * optimization: Direct calls to CHAR-{EQUAL,LESSP,GREATERP} and
     their NOT- variants no longer cons.
-  * enhancement: XREF information is now collected to references made
+  * optimization: EQUAL hash tables no longer use SXHASH for objects
+    of all data types, but instead use an EQL hash for types for which
+    EQUAL is the same as EQL
+  * optimization: the non-inlined generic versions of AREF and (SETF AREF)
+    are significantly faster
+  * optimization: new STRING-OUTPUT-STREAM implementation is much
+    faster for large outputs and conses 30% less on average.
+  * enhancement: XREF information is now collected for references made
     to global variables using SYMBOL-VALUE and a constant argument.
   * enhancement: SIGINT now causes a specific condition
     SB-SYS:INTERACTIVE-INTERRUPT to be signalled.
-  * bug fix: adding and removing fd-handlers is now thread-safe.
+  * bug fix: FILE-POSITION used to signal an error in some cases where

+  * bug fix: ADJUST-ARRAY is now interrupt-safe.
+  * bug fix: adding and removing fd-handlers is now interrupt-safe.

   * bug fix: an &environment argument with the correct variable information
     is passed to macros that are expanded during byte compilation
     (reported by Samium Gromoff)
-  * improvement: the x86-64/darwin port now passes all tests and
-    should be considered non-experimental.
+  * bug fix: a logic error was causing the hash function for bignums to
+    have excessive amounts of collisions (reported by Faré Rideau)
+  * bug fix: modifying the contents of an array could change the return
+    value of SXHASH on that array, which is only allowed for strings 
+    and bit vectors (bug introduced in 0.9.16)
+  * improvement: the x86-64/darwin port now passes all tests (except
+    for the debugger tests) but should still be considered
+    experimental until this is fixed.
+  * improvement: a style-warning is signaled for CASE (etc) clauses with
+    duplicate keys (thanks to Kevin Reid)
+  * improvement: macos/x86 and macos/x86-64 now use mach exception
+    handlers for dealing with illegal instructions (for trapping and
+    error handling) and memory protection violations (for GC).
 
 changes in sbcl-1.0.4 relative to sbcl-1.0.3:
   * new platform: experimental support for x86-64/darwin (MacOS).
