 changes in sbcl-0.8.22 relative to sbcl-0.8.21:
+  * incompatible change: the --noprogrammer option, deprecated since
+    version 0.7.5, has been removed.  Please use the equivalent
+    --disable-debugger option instead.
+  * Null lexical environments are now printed as #<NULL-LEXENV>, 
+    significantly reducing the amount of clutter in typical backtraces.
+  * optimization: REPLACE on declared (UNSIGNED-BYTE 8) vectors, as well
+    as other specialized array types, is much faster.  SUBSEQ and
+    COPY-SEQ on such arrays have also been sped up.
+  * fixed bug: compiler error messages and summaries are now printed to 
+    *ERROR-OUTPUT*, not *STANDARD-OUTPUT*.
   * fixed inference of the upper bound of an iteration variable.
     (reported by Rajat Datta).
   * fixed bug 376: CONJUGATE type deriver.
+  * fixed infinite looping of ALIEN-FUNCALL, compiled with high DEBUG.
+    (reported by Baughn on #lisp)
+  * fixed some bugs related to Unicode integration:
+    ** the restarts for recovering from input and output encoding
+       errors only appear when there is in fact such an error to
+       handle.
   * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
     ** MISC.549 and similar: late transformation of unsafe type
        assertions into derived types caused unexpected code
