+  * enhancement: ~/ and ~user/ are treated specially in pathnames.
+    Refer to documentation for details.
+  * optimization: mutated closed-over variables that are only accessed by
+    DYNAMIC-EXTENT closures (currently only FLET and LABELS functions
+    declared to be DYNAMIC-EXTENT) are stored directly in their containing
+    stack frame, rather than allocating a VALUE-CELL (lp#586103).
+  * optimization: UNWIND-PROTECT cleanup functions are now declared
+    DYNAMIC-EXTENT.
+  * bug fix: backtracing function with &REST arguments now shows the full
+    argument list. (lp#310173)
+  * bug fix: return types for functions with complex lambda-lists are now
+    derived properly (lp#384892)
+  * bug fix: when SPEED > SPACE compiling CONCATENATE 'STRING with constant
+    long string arguments slowed the compiler down to a crawl.
+  * bug fix: closure VALUE-CELLs are no longer stack-allocated (lp#308934).
+  * bug fix: non-standard MAKE-METHOD-LAMBDA methods could break RETURN-FROM
+    in the DEFMETHOD body.
+  * bug fix: #<SB-C::DEFINED-FUN ...> should no longer appear in compiler
+    messages, being instead replaced with the corresponding function name.

     Branches are simplified before performing if/if-conversion, and simple

+  * improvements to the Windows port:
+    ** change: canonical unparsing form for pathname namestrings now uses / as

   * bug fix: compiler failed to derive the result-type of MAKE-ARRAY as

   * bug fix: overeager character buffering could cause input to block

   * bug fix: more efficient timer expiry should avoid starvation on systems
     where number of SIGALRMs per second is restricted. (lp#375515)
