+changes in sbcl-1.0.6 relative to sbcl-1.0.5:
+  * new contrib: sb-cover, an experimental code coverage tool, is included
+    as a contrib module.
+  * enhancement: a new, experimental synchronous timeout facility is
+    provided. Refer to SB-SYS:WITH-DEADLINE for details.
+  * enhancement: when a symbol name conflict error arises, the
+    conflicting symbols are always printed with a package prefix.
+    (thanks to Kevin Reid)
+  * enhancement: stepping is now once again supported on the SPARC.  (It is
+    also now more likely to work on CheneyGC builds on the PPC.)
+  * enhancement: Stepping support on MIPS.
+  * incompatible change: PURIFY no longer copies the data from the 
+    dynamic space into the static and read-only spaces on platforms
+    that use the generational garbage collector
+  * bug fix: GETHASH, (SETF GETHASH), CLRHASH and REMHASH are now
+    interrupt safe.
+  * bug fix: GC race condition occasionally resulting in crashes with
+    the error message "SIG_STOP_FOR_GC blocked at a bad place" has been
+    fixed.
+  * bug fix: &ENVIRONMENT variables in macro lambda lists can now be
+    declared ignored.
+  * bug fix: DEFSETF lambda lists without &ENVIRONMENT no longer cause
+    a STYLE-WARNING to be signalled (regression from 1.0.4.)
+  * bug fix: an asynchronous interrupt could previously leave the
+    system running with GC inhibited.
+  * bug fix: a DECLARE form evaluated at top-level now causes an error
+    rather than silently (or verbosely) returning NIL.

 changes in sbcl-1.0.5 relative to sbcl-1.0.4:
   * incompatible change: removed writer methods for host-ent-name,
     host-ent-addresses -- changing the values did not update the DNS
