 changes in sbcl-0.8.11 relative to sbcl-0.8.10:
+  * new feature: the SB-EXT:MUFFLE-CONDITIONS declaration should be
+    used to control emission of compiler diagnostics, rather than the
+    SB-EXT:INHIBIT-WARNINGS OPTIMIZE quality.  See the manual for
+    documentation on this feature.  The SB-EXT:INHIBIT-WARNINGS
+    quality should be considered deprecated.
+  * fixed bug: DEFCLASS slot definitions with identical :READER and
+    :WRITER names now signal a reasonable error. (reported by Thomas
+    Burdick)
+  * fixed bug: CLOSE :ABORT T on appending stream no longer causes
+    file deletion.
+  * fixed bug: Invalid slot specification errors now print correctly. 
+    (thanks to Zach Beane)
+  * fixed bug 320: Shared to local slot value transfers in class 
+    redefinitions now happen corrently from superclasses as
+    well. (reported by Bruno Haible)
+  * fixed bug 316: SHIFTF now accepts VALUES forms. (reported by Bruno
+    Haible)
+  * fixed bug 322: DEFSTRUCT :TYPE LIST type predicates now handle
+    improper lists correctly. (reported by Bruno Haible)
   * fixed bug 313: source-transform for <fun-name> was erroneously
     applied to a call of a value of a variable with name <fun-name>.
     (reported by Antonio Menezes Leitao)
-  * on X86 fixed bug 298, revealed by Paul F. Dietz' test suite: SBCL
-    can remove dead unknown-values globs from the middle of the stack.
+  * fixed bug 307: The obsolete instance protocol ensures that
+    subclasses are properly obsoleted.  (thanks to Nikodemus Siivola)
+  * on SPARC, X86 and Alpha fixed bug 298, revealed by Paul F. Dietz'
+    test suite: SBCL can remove dead unknown-values globs from the
+    middle of the stack.
+  * added a new restart to *BREAK-ON-SIGNALS* handling to make it
+    easier to resume long computations after using *BREAK-ON-SIGNALS*
+    to diagnose and fix failures.  (thanks to Nikodemus Siivola)
+  * fixed bug reported by PFD in lisppaste #747 (and Bruno Haible from
+    CLISP test suite): WRITE-TO-STRING is not constant-foldable.
+  * fixed bugs in COMPLEX type specifier: UPGRADED-COMPLEX-PART-TYPE
+    is now consistent with (COMPLEX <x>); bugs in treatment of COMPLEX
+    MEMBER and UNION types have likewise been fixed.  (thanks to Bruno
+    Haible)
+  * fixed a (fairly theoretical) bug in string printing: if
+    *PRINT-READABLY* is true, signal PRINT-NOT-READABLE if the string
+    does not have array-element-type equal to the most general string
+    type.
+  * fixed bug: SET-PPRINT-DISPATCH does not immediately resolve
+    function name. (thanks to Nikodemus Siivola)
+  * fixed bug: compile-time format string checker failed on
+    non-closed ~{.  (reported by Thomas F Burdick)
+  * fixed bug: as reported by Kalle Olavi Niemitalo on #lisp IRC,
+    don't warn on legal loop code involving more than one aggregate
+    boolean.  (thanks to Nikodemus Siivola)
+  * fixed bug: as reported by Peter Graves on #lisp IRC, passing a NIL
+    in keyword position to MAKE-PACKAGE was not being reported as
+    invalid.
+  * fixed bug: as reported by Juan Ripoll on cmucl-imp,
+    MULTIPLE-VALUE-BIND should be able to lexically bind lambda list
+    keywords.
+  * fixed bugs 280 and 312: the checking for multiple definitions in a
+    file is less likely to become confused by uses of inline
+    functions.
+  * optimization: rearranged the expansion of various defining macros
+    so that each expands into only one top-level form in a
+    :LOAD-TOPLEVEL context; this appears to decrease fasl sizes by
+    approximately 10%.
+  * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+    ** MAKE-INSTANCES-OBSOLETE returns the class name when called with 
+       a symbol.
+    ** Fixed an optimization bug related to inheritance of initforms
+       from local to shared slots.
+    ** FILE-POSITION works as specified on BROADCAST-STREAMs.
+    ** CAST optimizer forgot to flush argument derived type.
+    ** print/read consistency on floats is now orders of magnitude
+       more likely.  (thanks also to Bruno Haible for a similar report
+       and discussions)
+    ** removed stack cleaning in the cleanup part of UNWIND-PROTECT.
+    ** IMAGPART is specified (infelicitously) to return (* 0 <thing>)
+       for objects of type REAL.  Make it so.
+    ** SXHASH is specified (infelicitously) to respect similarity,
+       which means that (SXHASH 0.0) must equal (SXHASH -0.0).  Make
+       it so.  (thanks to Markus Ziegler)
+    ** on the Alpha, the compiler succeeds in compiling functions
+       returning a known number of arguments greater than 63.
+    ** fixed handling of invalid NIL arguments in keyword position
+       in local calls.
