(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.
