   * documentation: networking interface SB-BSD-SOCKETS' documentation
     has been integrated into the user manual.
+  * bug fix: SBCL can now load its contributed modules with REQUIRE
+    even if the system-provided entries have been removed from
+    ASDF:*CENTRAL-REGISTRY*. Infinite recursion in REQUIRE is also
+    detected.
   * bug fix: backtraces involving undefined functions or assembly
     routines are more informative.  (thanks to Brian Downing)
   * bug fix: mutually referent alien structures now work correctly.

   * bug fix: improve the detection and resolution of MOP metacycles
     (where effective method computation depends on the generic function
     having its effective method computed).  (reported by Bruno Haible)
+  * bug fix: pass the right initargs to :BEFORE or :AFTER methods on
+    SHARED-INITIALIZE or INITIALIZE-INSTANCE in optimized
+    MAKE-INSTANCE constructors.  (reported by Axel Schairer for cmucl)
   * optimization: in taking the GCD of bignums, reduce the two bignums
     to approximately the same size (using Euclid's algorithm) before
     applying the more sophisticated binary GCD.  (thanks to Juho
     Snellman)
+  * optimization: COUNT on bitvectors now operates word-at-a-time.
+  * optimization: ASH with a positive, but not necessarily constant,
+    (leftwards) shift, when in a modular context, is compiled to a
+    hardware shift.
+  * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+    ** FORMAT variable parameters ("~V<char>") are defaulted properly
+       if the corresponding argument is NIL.
+    ** FORMAT directives accepting a minpad parameter treat negative
+       values as 0.
+    ** literal commas as character parameters to FORMAT directives are
+       parsed correctly.
+    ** literal spaces directly after ~<Newline> directives within a
+       format-logical-block (~:< ~@:>) do not induce :FILL-style
+       conditional newlines.
+    ** PRINT-UNREADABLE-OBJECT inserts spaces as specified (and only
+       as specified: it no longer includes conditional newlines).
+    ** PRINC-TO-STRING binds *PRINT-READABLY* to NIL (as well as
+       *PRINT-ESCAPE*).
+    ** PPRINT-LOGICAL-BLOCK signals a TYPE-ERROR if its :PREFIX or
+       :PER-LINE-PREFIX argument does not evaluate to a string.
