+changes in sbcl-0.8.0 relative to sbcl-0.8alpha.0
+  * SBCL now builds using CLISP (version of late April 2003 from CVS)
+    as cross-compilation host.
+  * minor incompatible change: the :NEGATIVE-ZERO-IS-NOT-ZERO feature
+    no longer has any effect, as the code controlled by this feature
+    has been deleted.  (As far as we know, no-one has ever built using
+    this feature, and its semantics were confused in any case).
+  * SB-MOP:DIRECT-SLOT-DEFINITION-CLASS and
+    SB-MOP:EFFECTIVE-SLOT-DEFINITION-CLASS now have the
+    specified-by-AMOP lambda list of (CLASS &REST INITARGS).
+  * compiler checks for duplicated variables in macro lambda lists.
+  * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+    ** the GENERIC-FUNCTION type is no longer disjoint from FUNCTION
+       types.
+    ** &ENVIRONMENT parameter in macro lambda list is bound first.
+    ** SXHASH on condition objects no longer returns NIL.
