+  * new feature: ARRAY-STORAGE-VECTOR provides access to the underlying
+    data vector of an multidimensional SIMPLE-ARRAY.
+  * new feature: the system now signals a continuable error if standard
+    readtable modification is attempted. (thanks to Tobias Rittweiler)
+  * optimization: faster generic arithmetic dispatch on x86 and x86-64.
+  * optimization: FORMAT ~D and ~F are now approximately 5% faster.
+  * tradeoff: constant FORMAT control strings are now compiled unless
+    SPACE > SPEED (previously only when SPEED > SPACE.)
+  * bug fix: Red Hat Enterprise 3 mmap randomization workaround. (thanks
+    to Thomas Burdick)
+  * bug fix: DEFCLASS and ENSURE-CLASS-USING-CLASS are now expected to
+    be thread safe.
+  * bug fix: lexical type declarations are now correctly reported by
+    SB-CLTL2. (reported by Larry D'Anna)
+  * bug fix: STRING-TO-OCTETS did not handle :START properly when
+    using UTF-8 as external format. (thanks to Luis Oliveira)
+  * bug fix: errors from invalid fill-pointer values to (SETF FILL-POINTER)
+    are signalled correctly. (thanks to Stas Boukarev)
+  * bug fix: SET-MACRO-CHARACTER accepts NIL as the readtable
+    designator. (thanks to Tobias Rittweiler)
+  * bug fix: SET-DISPATCH-MACRO-CHARACTER accepts NIL as the readtable
+    designator, and returns T instead of the function. (thanks to
+    Tobias Rittweiler)
+  * bug fix: direct superclasses of STANDARD-CLASS and
+    FUNCALLABLE-STANDARD-CLASS now default to STANDARD-OBJECT and
+    FUNCALLABLE-STANDARD-OBJECT as required by AMOP.
+  * bug fix: compiling a call to SLOT-VALUE with a constant slot-name
+    when no class with the named slot yet exists no longer causes a
+    compile-time style-warning.
+  * bug fix: :ALLOCATION :CLASS slots are type-checked properly
+    in safe code. (reported by Didier Verna)
+  * bug fix: #430; nested structure constructors can stack allocate.
+  * bug fix: on some 64-bit platforms dynamic space size was truncated
+    to #xffff0000 bytes. (reported by Benjamin Lambert)
+  * bug fix: setting *READ-SUPPRESS* to T no longer renders the default
+    REPL unusable. (reported by Daniel Herring)
+  * bug fix: return values of READ-SEQUENCE did not take :START into
+    account on file streams, regressions since 1.0.12.22. (reported by
+    Thomas Russ, patch by Paul Khuong)
+  * bug fix: using SET or (SETF SYMBOL-VALUE) to change the value of a
+    method specializer used to confuse permuation vector optimization.
+  * bug fix: system inserted bogus implicit type declarations for local
+    special variables in DEFMETHOD bodies.
+  * bug fix: #354; duplicated frames in backtraces due to
+    non-tail-call-optimized XEPs to functions with return type NIL
+    have been elimited.
+  * bug fix: #357; MAKE-INSTANCE/SHARED-INITIALIZE now
+    initializes structure object slots according to DEFSTRUCT initforms,
+    and DEFSTRUCT forms :INCLUDEind structure classes defined using
+    DEFCLASS :METACLASS STRUCTURE-CLASS now inherit their initforms.

+changes in sbcl-1.0.23 relative to 1.0.22:
+  * enhancement: when disassembling method functions, disassembly
+    for the associated fast function is also produced.
+  * enhancement: system stores DEFTYPE lambda-lists, so DESCRIBE can
+    report them.
+  * optimization: printing with *PRINT-PRETTY* true is now more
+    efficient as long as the object being printed doesn't require
+    special handling by the pretty printer.
+  * bug fix: slot symbol-macros from WITH-SLOTS inside DEFMETHOD bodies
+    now interact correctly with type declarations.
+  * partial bug fix: PCL detects infinite recursion during wrapper
+    validation. (thanks to Attila Lendvai)
+  * bug fix: #426; nested function calls are inlined properly.
+    Previously if FOO was an inline function, in calls of the form
+    (FOO (FOO ...)) the outer call was not inlined.
+  * bug fix: long long arguments passed in registers to alien
+    functions on PowerPC Linux and NetBSD are now handled correctly
+    when preceded by SYSTEM-AREA-POINTERs. (reported by Josh Elsasser)
