 changes in sbcl-0.6.11 relative to sbcl-0.6.10:
+* Martin Atzmueller pointed out that bugs #9 and #25 are gone in
+  current SBCL.
+* bug 34 fixed by Martin Atzmueller: dumping/loading instances works
+  better
+* fixed bug 40: TYPEP, SUBTYPEP, UPGRADED-ARRAY-ELEMENT-TYPE, 
+  and UPGRADED-COMPLEX-PART-TYPE now work better with of compound
+  types built from undefined types, e.g. '(VECTOR SOME-UNDEF-TYPE).
+* DESCRIBE now works on structure objects again.
+* Most function call argument type mismatches are now handled as
+  STYLE-WARNINGs instead of full WARNINGs, since the compiler doesn't
+  know whether the function will be redefined before the call is
+  executed. (The compiler could flag local calls with full WARNINGs,
+  as per the ANSI spec "3.2.2.3 Semantic Constraints", but right now
+  it doesn't keep track of enough information to know whether calls
+  are local in this sense.)
+* Compiler output is now more verbose, with messages truncated
+  later than before. (There should be some supported way for users
+  to override the default verbosity, but I haven't decided how to 
+  provide it yet, so this behavior is still controlled by the internal
+  SB-C::*COMPILER-ERROR-PRINT-FOO* variables in
+  src/compiler/ir1util.lisp.)
+* Fasl file format version numbers have increased again, because
+  support for the Gray streams extension changes the layout of the
+  system's STREAM objects.
 * The Gray subclassable streams extension now works, thanks to a 
   patch from Martin Atzmueller.
