+changes in sbcl-1.0.9 relative to sbcl-1.0.8:
+  * minor incompatible change: SB-SYS:OUTPUT-RAW-BYTES is deprecated.
+  * enhancement: SB-EXT:FINALIZE accepts a :DONT-SAVE keyword argument,
+    indicating the finalizer should be cancelled when SAVE-LISP-AND-DIE
+    is called.
+  * enhancement: default PRINT-OBJECT methods for classes, slot-definitions,
+    and generic function now print the object identity for anonymous
+    instances. (thanks to Attila Lendvai)
+  * enhancement: as an extension to MOP, SBCL now supports SETF of
+    STANDARD-INSTANCE-ACCESS and FUNCALLABLE-STANDARD-INSTANCE-ACCESS.
+    (thanks to Attila Lendvai)
+  * bug fix: new compiler transforms for MEMBER and ASSOC were affected
+    by printer control variables. (reported by Dan Corkill)
+  * bug fix: system leaked memory when delayed output was performed by
+    the OS in smaller chunks then expected. (thanks to David Smith)
+  * bug fix: system leaked memory when file streams were not closed 
+    properly.
+  * bug fix: large objects written to slow streams that were modified
+    after the write could end up with the modified state written to
+    the underlying file descriptor.
+  * bug fix: multiple threads operating in parallel on the same stream
+    could cause buffer-overflows.

 changes in sbcl-1.0.8 relative to sbcl-1.0.7:
   * enhancement: experimental macro SB-EXT:COMPARE-AND-SWAP provides
     atomic compare-and-swap operations on threaded platforms.

   * performance bug fix: GETHASH and (SETF GETHASH) are once again
     non-consing.
+  * optimization: slot definition lookup is now O(1). This speeds up
+    eg. SLOT-VALUE and (SETF SLOT-VALUE) with variable slot names.
   * optimization: STRING-TO-OCTETS is now up to 60% faster for UTF-8.
-  * optimization: MEMBER can now be open-coded for all combinations
-    of keyword arguments when second argument is constant, and in other
-    cases a specialized version is selected.
+  * optimization: ASSOC and MEMBER can now be open-coded for all

   * bug fix: using obsoleted structure instances with TYPEP and

   * bug fix: threads waiting on GET-FOREGROUND can be interrupted.
