   * bug fix: ASH on an (UNSIGNED-BYTE 32) with a shift of -32 or lower
     no longer ever returns 1 instead of 0.  (thanks to Lars Brinkhoff)
+  * fixed bug 285: TRUNCATE on bignum arguments, and indeed bignum
+    arithmetic in general, is now much more reliable on the PPC
+    platform.
   * optimization: restored some effective method precomputation in
     CLOS (turned off by an ANSI fix in sbcl-0.8.3); the amount of
     precomputation is now tunable.
