+changes in sbcl-1.0.4 relative to sbcl-1.0.3:
+  * new platform: experimental support for x86-64/darwin (MacOS).
+  * incompatible change: the thread-safe (on most platforms) getaddrinfo
+    and getnameinfo sockets functions are used instead of gethostbyaddr
+    and gethostbyname, on platforms where the newer functions are available.
+    As a result, the ALIASES field of HOST-ENT will always be NIL on these
+    platforms.
+  * optimization: code using alien values with undeclared types is much faster.
+  * optimization: the compiler is now able to open code SEARCH in more cases.
+  * bug fix: >= and <= gave wrong results when used with NaNs.
+  * bug fix: the #= and ## reader macros now interact reasonably with
+    funcallable instances.
+  * bug fix: type-checks for function arguments were compiled using the
+    compiler policy settings of the wrong lexical environment (in 1.0.2
+    and 1.0.3).
+  * bug fix: SHADOW accepts characters as string designators, as required
+    by the spec (thanks to Eric Marsden)
+  * bug fix: fixed GC safety issues when foreign functions are called with
+    non-base strings as arguments
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.3 relative to sbcl-1.0.2:
+  * new platform: NetBSD/PPC.  (thanks to Aymeric Vincent)
+  * optimization: calls of the form (AREF FOO (+ INDEX <constant>)) now
+    produce more efficient code on the x86 if the compiler can determine
+    that (+ INDEX <constant>) does not require a bounds check and FOO
+    has an element type at least 8 bits wide.
+  * bug fix: references to undefined variables are handled the same way
+    in toplevel forms as in the normal compiler
+  * bug fix: the build scripts again work with non-bash /bin/sh (thanks
+    to Magnus Henoch)
+  * bug fix: use "gtar" as the asdf-install *TAR-PROGRAM* on NetBSD
+    (thanks to Jon Buller)
+  * improvement: faster compilation times for complex functions
+  * improvement: added readlink support to SB-POSIX (thanks to Richard
+    M Kreuter)

 changes in sbcl-1.0.2 relative to sbcl-1.0.1:
   * improvement: experimental support for mach exception handling on
     x86/macos. requires building with :MACH-EXCEPTION-HANDLER feature

   * improvement: the debugger now displays variables that have been closed
     over, in code compiled with (DEBUG 2) or higher
+  * improvement: support for executable cores on NetBSD (thanks to 
+    Richard Kreuter)
+  * new feature: added a RESTART-FRAME debugger command
+  * new feature: new generic function SB-GRAY:STREAM-FILE-POSITION can 
+    be used to provide an implementation for FILE-POSITION on Gray streams
+    (thanks to Eric Marsden)
+  * new feature: add syslog, openlog and closelog support to SB-POSIX 
+    (thanks to Richard Kreuter)
+  * optimization: the function call overhead in code compiled with 
+    a high DEBUG optimization setting is significantly 
   * bug fix: an error is signaled for attempts to use READ-SEQUENCE
     for a (SIGNED-BYTE 8) stream and (UNSIGNED-BYTE 8) vector, or vice versa.
     (thanks to Tony Martinez)
   * bug fix: the initforms for DEFMETHOD &AUX parameters are only
     evaluated once (reported by Kevin Reid)
+  * bug fix: the :SHOW-PROGRESS keyword parameter to SB-SPROF:WITH-PROFILING
+    works again (thanks to Kilian Sprotte)
+  * bug fix: an error is signaled for tagbodies with duplicate tags 
+    (thanks to Stephen Wilson)
+  * bug fix: NIL can be used as a tagbody tag (thanks to Stephen Wilson)
+  * bug fix: Win32 port can now handle foreign code unwinding Lisp
+    stack frames from alien callbacks.
+  * bug fix: ATANH returned incorrect results on win32 (thanks to Pierre Mai)  
+  * bug fix: SBCL works on Linux/ppc systems with a kernel configured to use
+    65k pages (thanks to David Woodhouse)
+  * bug fix: fix SB-POSIX dirent and socket on NetBSD (thanks to Richard Kreuter)
 
 changes in sbcl-1.0.1 relative to sbcl-1.0:
   * new platform: FreeBSD/x86-64, including support for threading.
