     ** Printing the "Space" character with escaping on now yields "#\\ ", 
        rather than "#\\Space", as mandated by ANSI 22.1.3.2.
+    ** Reading floating-point numbers with *READ-BASE* set to a number
+       less than 10 works correctly.
+    ** Reading floating-point numbers with *READ-BASE* set to a number
+       more than 10 works correctly.

+changes in sbcl-0.8.10 relative to sbcl-0.8.9:
+  * Support for the forthcoming 2.0 version of the NetBSD kernel
+    running on x86 hardware has been added.  (thanks to Perry
+    E. Metzger most immediately, and others for their past work)
+  * SBCL now runs on OpenBSD 3.4. (Thanks to Scott Parish; 3.4 is the
+    current release version; SBCL's OpenBSD support had been broken 
+    since about the time of OpenBSD's switch to ELF binary format.)
+  * [placeholder for DX summary]
+    ** user code with &REST lists declared dynamic-extent, under high
+       speed or space and low safety and debug optimization policy.
+  * The manual has been converted to Texinfo format and the debugger
+    chapter from the cmucl manual has been added.
+  * A facility has been added to extract documentation strings from
+    sbcl and store them as Texinfo-formatted snippets for inclusion in
+    the manual (via Texinfo's @include directive)
+  * bug fix: compiler emitted division in optimized DEREF.  (thanks for
+    the test case to Dave Roberts)
+  * bug fix: multidimensional simple arrays loaded from FASLs had fill
+    pointers.  (reported by Sean Ross)
+  * bug fix: PROFILE output is printed nicely even for large numerical
+    values.  (thanks to Zach Beane)
+  * bug fix: streams with element-type (SIGNED-BYTE <N>) for <N>
+    greater than 32 handle EOF correctly.
+  * bug fix: on X86 an immediate argument of the IMUL instruction is
+    correctly printed in disassembly. (thanks to Lutz Euler)
+  * bug fix: class slots in redefined classes preserve their old
+    values.  (thanks to Bruno Haible and Nikodemus Siivola)
+  * bug fix: compilation of funcalls of CXX+R (e.g. CDDR) now
+    succeeds.  (reported by Marco Baringer)
+  * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+    ** READ-SEQUENCE now works on ECHO-STREAMs.
+    ** RATIONALIZE works more according to its specification.  (thanks
+       to Bruno Haible)

+changes in sbcl-0.8.11 relative to sbcl-0.8.10:
+  * 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.
+  * 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)
