+changes in sbcl-1.0.11 relative to sbcl-1.0.10:
+  * incompatible change: hash-table accessor functions are no longer
+    automatically protected by locks. Concurrent accesses on the same hash-table
+    from multiple threads can give inconsistent results or even corrupt the
+    hash-table completely. Multi-threaded applications should do their own
+    locking at the correct granularity. In the current implementation it is
+    still safe to have multiple readers access the same table, but it's not
+    guaranteed that this property will be maintained in future releases.
+  * enhancement: SB-THREAD package now exports a semaphore interface.
+  * enhancement: CONS can now stack-allocate on x86 and
+    x86-64. (Earlier LIST and LIST* supported stack-allocation, but
+    CONS did not.)
+  * enhancement: nested lists can now be stack allocated on
+    platforms providing stack allocation support.
+  * enhancement: dynamic-extent support has been extended to support
+    cases where there are multiple possible sources for the stack
+    allocated value.
+  * bug fix: symbol-macro expansion now uses the *MACROEXPAND-HOOK*
+    as specified by the CLHS. (thanks to Tobias Rittweiler)
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.10 relative to sbcl-1.0.9:
+  * minor incompatible change: the MSI installer on Windows no longer
+    associates .lisp and .fasl files with the installed SBCL.
+  * minor incompatible change: :UNIX is no longer present in *FEATURES*
+    on Windows. (thanks to Luis Oliviera)
+  * new feature: SB-CLTL2 contrib module now implements
+    FUNCTION-INFORMATION. (thanks to Larry D'Anna)
+  * optimization: scavenging weak pointers is now more efficient,
+    requiring O(1) instead of O(N) per weak pointer to identify
+    scanvenged vs. unscavenged pointers. (thanks to Paul Khuong)
+  * optimization: typechecking (SETF SLOT-VALUE) is now ~5x faster in
+    method bodies using constant slot-names when the first argument is
+    a specializer parameter for the method.
+  * optimization: SLOT-VALUE &co are now ~50% faster for variable slot
+    names, when the class of the instance is a direct instance
+    STANDARD-CLASS or FUNCALLABLE-STANDARD-CLASS (making them only 3x
+    as slow as the constant slot-name case.)
+  * optimization: member type construction is now O(N) instead
+    of O(N^2).
+  * optimization: UNION and NUNION are now O(N+M) for large
+    inputs as long as the :TEST function is one of EQ, EQL, EQUAL, or
+    EQUALP.
+  * enhancement: DEFINE-MODIFY-MACRO lambda-list information is
+    now more readable in environments like Slime which display it.
+    (thanks to Tobias C. Rittweiler)  
+  * bug fix: SB-EXT:COMPARE-AND-SWAP was non-atomic unless the compiler
+    was able to infer the correct argument type for the object on which
+    the CAS operation was being performed.
+  * bug fix: copy propagation interfered with parallel assignment
+    semantics in local calls. (reported by Paul Khuong)
+  * bug fix: the signed modular fixnum shift compiled to wrong code on
+    x86 and x86-64.  (spotted by a slight modification to some of
+    PFD's random tests)
+
 changes in sbcl-1.0.9 relative to sbcl-1.0.8:
   * minor incompatible change: SB-SYS:OUTPUT-RAW-BYTES is deprecated.
   * enhancement: SB-EXT:FINALIZE accepts a :DONT-SAVE keyword argument,
     indicating the finalizer should be cancelled when SAVE-LISP-AND-DIE
     is called.
+  * enhancement: default PRINT-OBJECT methods for classes, slot-definitions,
+    and generic function now print the object identity for anonymous
+    instances. (thanks to Attila Lendvai)
+  * enhancement: as an extension to MOP, SBCL now supports SETF of
+    STANDARD-INSTANCE-ACCESS and FUNCALLABLE-STANDARD-INSTANCE-ACCESS.
+    (thanks to Attila Lendvai)
+  * enhancement: sb-cover has an alternate annotation mode which puts
+    the form annotations at the car of the form, instead of annotating
+    it completely. The benefit of this mode is that it shows better
+    which forms were instrumented by the compiler.
   * bug fix: new compiler transforms for MEMBER and ASSOC were affected
     by printer control variables. (reported by Dan Corkill)

   * bug fix: multiple threads operating in parallel on the same stream
     could cause buffer-overflows.
+  * bug fix: source location information is stored correctly 
+    (broken since 1.0.6). This bug would generally show up as the
