+changes relative to sbcl-1.1.10
+  * enhancement: support building the manual under texinfo version 5.
+    (lp#1189146)
+  * enhancement: Windows builds no longer display the "Kitten of Death" message.
+    A warning is instead appended to the regular banner, and may be muted with
+    --noinform.  (lp#728247)
+  * enhancement: support building under new linker handling of syscalls under
+    NetBSD.  (thanks to Robert Swindells)
+  * bug fix: undefined function errors are now properly reported on PPC and MIPS.
+    (regression since 1.1.9)
+  * bug fix: (funcall (function X junk)) didn't causes an error when X had a
+    compiler macro.  (thanks to Douglas Katzman).
+  * bug fix: signal a warning when defining a setf-function when a
+    setf-expander is already present.  (thanks to Douglas Katzman).
+  * bug fix: improved threading on PPC.  
+  * bug fix: ROOM works again on Windows.  (lp#1206456)
+  * bug fix: Streams were flushed even when there was one byte still left in
+    the buffer. (lp#910213)
+  * bug fix: OPEN handles correctly when :if-exists and :if-does-not-exist are
+    either NIL or :ERROR.  (reported by Jan Moringen)
+
+changes in sbcl-1.1.10 relative to sbcl-1.1.9:
+  * enhancement: ASDF has been updated to 3.0.2.
+  * optimization: stack frames are packed more efficiently on x86oids, which
+    ought to reduce the frequency of Methuselahn conservative references (it
+    certainly helps with gc.impure.lisp / BUG-936304 on x86).
+  * optimization: on x86 and x86-64, integer negation forms like (- x) are now
+    recognized in modular arithmetic contexts, and compile to native negate,
+    rather than going through bignums only to keep the low bits.
+  * bug fix: Compiling potential modularic arithmetic forms does not cause type
+    errors when some integer types lack lower or upper bounds. (lp#1199127)
+  * bug fix: Non-trivial modular arithmetic forms are always cut to the right
+    bitwidth before being used in a non-modular context. (lp#1199428)
+  * bug fix: Multiple catch/unwind blocks in a single function are now
+    allocated in the right stack order on win32. (lp#1072739)
+
+changes in sbcl-1.1.9 relative to sbcl-1.1.8:
+  * new feature: the contrib SB-GMP links with libgmp at runtime to speed
+    up arithmetic on bignums and ratios.  (contributed by Stephan Frank)
   * enhancement: disassemble now annotates some previously missing static
     functions, like LENGTH.
+  * enhancement: clean.sh now also cleans doc/internals.
+  * enhancement: SB-EXT:PRINT-SYMBOL-WITH-PREFIX can be used within ~// to
+    print a symbol with a package prefix.
+  * enhancement: The debugger and backtracing are more robust against buggy
+    PRINT-OBJECT methods.
   * optimization: calls to static functions on x86-64 use less instructions.
   * optimization: compute encode-universal-time at compile time when possible.
   * optimization: when referencing internal functions as #'x, don't go through

+  * bug fix: FP return values from foreign calls are always rounded to single
+    or double float precision on x87.
+  * bug fix: Known-safe vector access on x86oids should not fail spuriously
