 changes relative to sbcl-1.1.4:
+  * minor incompatible change: SB-SPROF:WITH-PROFILING no longer loops
+    by default.
   * new feature: package local nicknames. See manual for details.
+  * new feature: SB-EXT:MAP-DIRECTORY provides a powerful interface for
+    directory traversal: it is the backend used by SBCL for CL:DIRECTORY.
   * enhancement: easier to use restarts for resolving name-conflicts
     resulting from IMPORT, EXPORT, or USE-PACKAGE.
   * enhancement: variant DEFPACKAGE forms now signal a full error with
     restarts provided for resolving the situation. (lp#891351)
-  * enhancement: by setting SB-EXT:*ON-PACKAGE-VARIANCE* to :ERROR variant
-    DEFPACKAGE forms now signal a full error with restarts provided for
-    resolving the situation. Default is :WARN, which retains the previous
-    behaviour. (lp#891351)
-  * enhancement: easier to read method names in backtraces.
-  * bug fix: secondary CLOS dispatch functions have better debug names.
-    (lp#503081)
+  * enhancement: by setting SB-EXT:*ON-PACKAGE-VARIANCE* appropriately variant
+    DEFPACKAGE forms can now signal a full error with restarts provided for
+    resolving the situation. See manual for details. (lp#891351)
+  * enhancement: make-random-state now uses CryptGenRandom as a seed on Windows.
+    (Thanks to Anton Kovalenko.) (lp#1102748)
+  * enhancement: backtrace improvements
+    ** secondary CLOS dispatch functions have better debug names (lp#503081)
+    ** easier to read method names in backtraces. See
+       SB-DEBUG:*METHOD-FRAME-STYLE*.
+    ** SB-DEBUG:PRINT-BACKTRACE and SB-DEBUG:LIST-BACKTRACE are available as
+       forwards-compatible replacements for SB-DEBUG:BACKTRACE and
+       SB-DEBUG:BACKTRACE-AS-LIST.
+    ** SB-DEBUG:*SHOW-ENTRY-POINT-DETAILS** has been deprecated, as the same
+       information is available in less intrusive form as frame annotations.
+  * enhancement: SB-POSIX now supports provides MAP-ANON.
+  * bug fix: no more unused variable style warnings from RESTART-CASE
+    macroexpansion (lp#1113859)
   * bug fix: deleting a package removes it from implementation-package
     lists of other packages.
+  * bug fix: SB-SPROF:WITH-PROFILING is now usable in the Slime REPL on Darwin.
+    This does not fix the occasional "interrupt already pending" issue, though.
 
 changes in sbcl-1.1.4 relative to sbcl-1.1.3:
   * optimization: LOOP expressions using "of-type character" have slightly
