0.9.8.5:

        Merge sbcl-devel "segmentation fault on recent FreeBSD-current"
        by NIIMI Satoshi, 2005-28-12 (with minor changes).

        Add comments to document the reasoning behind a couple of
        odd constructs in the 0.9.8.3 EQUAL changes to make them
        look less like CMUCL-style black magic.
