+changes in sbcl-0.9.14 relative to sbcl-0.9.13:
+  * feature: thread support on Solaris/x86, and experimental thread support
+    on OS X/x86.
+  * feature: SBCL now tries to signal a STORAGE-CONDITION when running out
+    of heap.
+  * feature: SBCL now provides USE-VALUE and STORE-VALUE restarts in the
+    default method for SLOT-UNBOUND.
+  * minor incompatible change: prevent the user from specializing the
+    new-value argument to SB-MOP:SLOT-VALUE-USING-CLASS.  It's
+    somewhat counter to the intent of the protocol, I (CSR) think, and
+    additionally it just doesn't work in SBCL as currently
+    implemented, thanks to optimizations (that are always valid for
+    the other three SLOT-VALUEish functions, but not for the setter).
+  * minor incompatible change: the :SB-LDB feature is now enabled by
+    default, and DISABLE-DEBUGGER and ENABLE-DEBUGGER also affect
+    the low-level debugger.
+  * enchancement: RUN-PROGRAM is now able to extract the file-descriptor
+    from SYNONYM-STREAM and TWO-WAY-STEAMS provided they can be decomposed
+    down to an SB-SYS:FD-STREAM, allowing direct communication in
+    more cases. Temporary files and pipes are still used as a fallback
+    strategy.
+  * bug fix: global optimization policy was not visible in LOCALLY and 
+    MACROLET forms.
+  * bug fix: class objects can be used as specializers in methods.
+    (reported by Pascal Costanza)
+  * bug fix: native unparsing of pathnames with :DIRECTORY NIL failed
+    with a type error. (reported by blitz_ on #lisp)
+  * bug fix: unparsing logical pathnames with :NAME :WILD :TYPE NIL
+    failed with a type error.  (reported by Pascal Bourguignon)
+  * bug fix: merging pathnames against defaults with :DIRECTORY
+    starting with '(:RELATIVE :BACK) should preserve the :BACK.
+    (reported by James Y Knight)
+  * bug fix: saving large (>2GB) cores on x86-64 now works
+  * bug fix: a x86-64 backend bug when compiling (setf aref) with a 
+    constant index and a (simple-array (signed-byte 32)) array
+  * bug fix: NAME-CHAR on an invalid symbol no longer signals an
+    error (patch by Robert J. Macomber)
+  * feature: TIME now displays the amount of run-time spent in GC
+  * bug fix: The debugger now does a better job of respecting 
+    (PUSH '(*PRINT-CIRCLE* . T) SB-DEBUG:*DEBUG-PRINT-VARIABLE-ALIST*)
+    when printing SB-DEBUG:*DEBUG-CONDITION*. (This is a debugger-only
+    workaround for bug 403.) 
+  * bug fix: floating point exception handling now works on FreeBSD
+    (thanks to NIIMI Satoshi)
+  * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+    ** MISC.641: LET-conversion were not supposed to work in late
+       compilation stages.
+  * improvements to the Win32/x86 port:
+    ** GET-INTERNAL-RUN-TIME implemented, thanks to Frank Buss.
+    ** improved SB-BSD-SOCKETS support, thanks to Timothy Ritchey.
+
 changes in sbcl-0.9.13 relative to sbcl-0.9.12:
   * new feature: source path information is generated for macro-expansion
     errors for use in IDE's like Slime (thanks to Helmut Eller)
