+changes relative to sbcl-1.0.42
+  * enhancement: SB-EXT:WORD type is provided for use with SB-EXT:ATOMIC-INCF
+    &co.
+  * enhancement: CLOS effective method functions and defclass slot typechecking
+    function now have debug names for use in backtraces and profiles.
+  * enhancement: ASDF has been updated to version 2.004. (lp#605260, thanks to
+    Faré Rideau)
+  * enhancement: symbols are printed using fully qualified names in several
+    error and warning messages which are often associated with package
+    conflicts or mixups (lp#622789, thanks to Attila Lendvai)
+  * bug fix: SB-BSD-SOCKETS:SOCKET-CONNECT was not thread safe. (lp#505497,
+    thanks to Andrew Golding)
+  * bug fix: DOTIMES accepted literal non-integer reals. (lp#619393, thanks to
+    Roman Marynchak)
+  * bug fix: WRITE-TO-STRING compiler macro binding special variable names,
+    breaking code that tried to write the value of a printer control variable.
+    (lp#581564, thanks to Stas Boukarev)
+  * bug fix: WRITE compiler macro did not handle output stream designators
+    correctly. (lp#598374, thanks to Stas Boukarev)
+  * bug fix: better availability of names of foreign functions in backtraces
+    on Linux. (lp#626962, thanks to Stas Boukarev)
+  * bug fix: scripting and build for Solaris and FreeBSD. (lp#615497,
+    lp#627581, thanks to Josh Elsasser and Jim Wise)
+  * bug fix: build fixes for OpenBSD -current and 4.8 (lp#615489, lp#615492,
+    thanks to Josh Elsasser)
+  * bug fix: using aliases for builtin classes as defmethod specializers
+    without adding DEFTYPEs for them works. (lp#618387)
+  * bug fix: timetravel by getrusage() no longer causes type-errors during GC.
+    (lp#544421)
+  * bug fix: legally dynamic-extent lists and vectors used as
+    initialization arguments to MAKE-ARRAY can be stack allocated. (lp#586105)
+  * bug fix: inline-expansion creating references to dead lambda-variables
+    (lp#454681, thanks to Alexey Dejneka)
+  * bug fix: better error message for bogus numerical arguments to RANDOM.
+    (lp#598986, thanks to Stas Boukarev)
+  * bug fix: the compiler occasionally inlined references from incompatible
+    environments occurs. (lp#308951)
+  * bug fix: the compiler threw an error when trying to compile a local
+    function (labels or flet) known to take a specialized complex argument.
+    (not in launchpad, reported by sykopomp in #lispgames)
+  * bug fix: package-locks failed to protect against compile-time effects of
+    DEFUN when the symbol previously had a macro definition. (lp#576637)
+  * bug fix: spurious ignore warnings even given (DECLARE IGNORE) in methods
+    when parameter bindings mutated.  (reported by Faré Rideau; lp #611361)

+changes in sbcl-1.0.42 relative to sbcl-1.0.41
+
+  * build changes
+    ** Cross-compilation host is now specified to make.sh using
+       command-line argument --xc-host=<command> instead of a positional
+       argument. (thanks to Daniel Herring)
+    ** Install location can be specified to make.sh using command-line
+       argument --prefix=<path>. (lp#550889s, thanks to Daniel Herring)
+  * optimization: The default implementation of
     COMPUTE-DISCRIMINATING-FUNCTION does much less wasted work.
   * enhancement: Explicit memory barrier operations are now available for use
     by multithreaded code.  See documentation for details.
   * enhancement: Experimental support for threading on Linux/PPC.
+  * bug fix: RENAME-PACKAGE returns the package.  (Thanks to Eric Marsden)
+  * bug fix: EXPT signals an error if first argument is a zero and second
+    argument is a floating point zero. (lp#571581, thanks to Roman Marynchak)
+  * bug fix: DEFTYPE signals an error for non-list lambda-lists.
+    (lp#576594, thanks to Roman Marynchak)
+  * bug fix: make ASDF-INSTALL compatible with the now-included ASDF2.
+    (lp#612998, reported by Phil Hargett; patch from Jim Wise)
