+changes in sbcl-0.9.14 relative to sbcl-0.9.13:
+  * bug fix: unparsing logical pathnames with :NAME :WILD :TYPE NIL
+    failed with a type error.  (reported by Pascal Bourguignon)
+  * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+    ** MISC.641: LET-conversion were not supposed to work in late

+changes in sbcl-0.9.13 relative to sbcl-0.9.12:
+  * new feature: source path information is generated for macro-expansion
+    errors for use in IDE's like Slime (thanks to Helmut Eller)
+  * bug fix: calls to the compiler no longer modify *RANDOM-STATE*
+  * bug fix: compiler does not loop forever on an invalid type in
+    TYPEP.
+  * improvement: compilation of most CLOS applications is significantly
+    faster
+  * optimization: added a limited bytecode compiler for simple toplevel
+    forms, speeding up compilation and FASL loading

 changes in sbcl-0.9.12 relative to sbcl-0.9.11:
-  * Enhancements for sbcl running on the Windows operating system:
-    ** (user-homedir-pathname) and default initialization file
-       locations now know about the user's "Documents and Settings"
-       directory (thanks to Yaroslav Kavenchuk)
-    ** run-program is implemented (thanks to Mike Thomas)
-    ** sockets support (thanks to Timothy Ritchey)
-    ** better backtrace support (thanks to Alastair Bridgewater)
-    ** sb-grovel supported
-    ** asdf-install and sb-posix work somewhat
-    ** capable of running Slime using SWANK:*COMMUNICATION-STYLE* NIL
+  * minor incompatible change: in sbcl-0.9.11 (but not earlier
+    versions) SB-MOP:FINALIZE-INHERITANCE would recursively descend
+    into subclasses of the finalized class.  Now user calls to
+    FINALIZE-INHERITANCE finalize just the one class, and calls by the
+    system return before any subclasses are finalized.
   * minor incompatible change: The reader no longer ignores errors
     regarding non-existent packages in #+ and #- feature tests.
   * new feature: command line options --no-sysinit, --no-userinit to

   * improvements to DOCUMENTATION for TYPE and STRUCTURE doc-types:
     allow condition class objects as arguments to DOCUMENTATION and
