bootstrapping under CLISP.
* SBCL now runs on the Tru64 (aka OSF/1) operating system on the
Alpha architecture.
- * bug 140 fixed: redefinition of classes with different supertypes
+ * bug 140 fixed: Redefinition of classes with different supertypes
is now reflected in the type hierarchy. (thanks to Pierre Mai)
- * bug 158 fixed: the compiler can now deal with integer loop
+ * bug 158 fixed: The compiler can now deal with integer loop
increments different from 1; fixing this turned out also to fix
bug 164.
* bug 169 fixed: no more bogus warnings about using lexical bindings
- despite the presence of perfectly good SPECIAL declarations. (thanks

to David Lichteblau)
- * bug 175 fixed: more-closely-ANSI CHANGE-CLASS function, now
+ * bug 175 fixed: CHANGE-CLASS is now more ANSI-conforming,
accepting initargs. (thanks to Espen Johnsen and Pierre Mai)
* bug 179 fixed: DIRECTORY can now deal with filenames with pattern
characters in them.
+ * bug 180 fixed: Method combination specifications no longer ignore
+ the :MOST-SPECIFIC-LAST option. (thanks to Pierre Mai)
* bug fix: Structure type predicate functions now check their argument
count as they should.
- * bug fix: classes with :METACLASS STRUCTURE-CLASS now print

correctly. (thanks to Pierre Mai)

a wild pathname to load, loads all files matching that pathname.
