0.9.3.74:

        Sneak in some INSTALL changes during the freeze ("Sssh! Don't
        tell anyone.")

        * Remove the misleading (DISABLE :SB-DOC) example for
          customize-target-features.lisp-expr
        * Add the -R parameter to the suggested memory randomization
          workaround (required as of Fedora Core 4)
        * Document x86-64/Linux and x86/Solaris as supported platforms
        * Add "-noinit" to the suggested command line for building
          with CMUCL as host
