+changes relative to sbcl-1.0.53:
+  * enchancement: on CHENEYGC targets, SB-KERNEL:MAKE-LISP-OBJ now does
+    the same validation of pointer objects as GENCGC does, instead of a
+    comparatively weak bounds-check against the heap spaces.
+  * bug fix: on 64-bit targets, atomic-incf/aref does index computation
+    correctly, even on wide-fixnum builds. (lp#887220)
+  * bug fix: (directory "foo/*/*.*") did not follow symlinks in foo/ that
+    resolved to directories.
+  * bug fix: SB-KERNEL:MAKE-LISP-OBJ on GENCGC no longer categorically
+    refuses to create SIMPLE-FUN objects.
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.53 relative to sbcl-1.0.52:
+  * enhancement: on 64-bit targets, in src/compiler/generic/early-vm.lisp,
+    the parameter n-fixnum-tag-bits may now vary from 1 (fixnum =
+    (signed-byte 63)) to 3 (fixnum = (signed-byte 61)) at build-time.
+  * enhancement: SB-EXT:WAIT-FOR allows waiting for arbitrary events.
+  * minor(?) incompatible(?) change: The default fixnum width on 64-bit
+    targets is now 63 bits (up from 61).
+  * enhancement: DESCRIBE now reports a lambda-list and source location
+    for complext setf-expanders.
+  * bug fix: PUSH, PUSHNEW, POP, REMF, INCF, DECF, DEFINE-MODIFY-MACRO,
+    GETF, LOGBITP, LDB, and MASK-FIELD now arrange for non-primary values
+    of multiple-valued places to be set to NIL, instead of signalling an
+    error (per a careful reading of CLHS 5.1.2.3).
+  * bug fix: floating-point traps now work on darwin/x86 and /x86-64.
+  * bug fix: repair crash in x86oid darwin signal handling emulation
+    when built with certain compilers.
+  * bug fix: SB-ROTATE-BYTE misrotated to the right when using constant
+    rotation arguments on x86-64. (lp#882151)
+  * bug fix: low-level control flow optimisations could result in bogus
+    code in functions with tail and non-tail calls to local functions on
+    x86oids. (lp#883500)
+  * bug fix: on SPARC/:sb-unicode, avoid crashing the assembler by trying
+    to emit literal characters > (code-char 4095), for comparisons with
+    constant characters.
+  * bug fix: ROOM reported only the low 32 bits of dynamic space usage
+    on 64 bit platforms. (lp#881445)
+  * bug fix: DELETE-FILE did not MERGE-PATHNAMES, making it possible to
+    delete the wrong file when using relative pathnames. (lp#882877)
+  * bug fix: optimized SEARCH of vectors-on-vectors mishandled zero-length
+    sequences and :KEY NIL.
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.52 relative to sbcl-1.0.51:
   * enhancement: ASDF has been updated to version 2.017.
+  * enhancement: the --core command line option now accepts binaries with
+    an embedded core.
+  * enhancement: when built with :sb-core-compression, core files (regular
+    or executable) can be compressed with zlib.  Use the :COMPRESSION
+    argument to SAVE-LISP-AND-DIE to specify a compression level.
+  * enhancement: --[no-]merge-core-pages determines whether the runtime
+    hints the operating system that identical core pages between SBCL
+    processes should share the same physical memory.  Default is to only
+    enable this for compressed cores.
   * optimization: SLEEP no longer conses.
   * optimization: *PRINT-PRETTY* no longer slows down printing of strings
     or bit-vectors when using the standard pretty-print dispatch table.
