Debian Release 1.0.49.0-1

sbcl-1.0.50

changes in sbcl-1.0.50 relative to sbcl-1.0.49:
  * enhancement: errors from FD handlers now provide a restart to remove
    the offending handler.
  * enhancement: SB-INTROSPECT:FIND-DEFINITION-SOURCE now works on structure
    copiers as well.
  * enhancement: location of user or system initialization file can now easily
    be customized for saved cores. See: SB-EXT:*USERINIT-PATHNAME-FUNCTION*
    and SB-EXT:*SYSINIT-PATHNAME-FUNCTION*.
  * enhancement: SB-EXT:MAKE-THREAD accepts an argument list designator for
    the thunk, as a keyword argument, :arguments.
  * enhancement: constraint propagation is simplified (and sped up) when
    COMPILATION-SPEED > SPEED.
  * enhancement: SB-ALIEN exports alien type specifiers SIZE-T and OFF-T.
  * enhancement: debugger understands &MORE arguments better.
  * optimization: extracting bits of a single-float on x86-64 has been
    optimized. (lp#555201)
  * optimization: MAP and MAP-INTO are more efficient for non-simple vectors,
    when (> SPEED SPACE).
  * optimization: local call trampolines (x86 and x86-64) are emitted
    inline.
  * optimization: implicit value cells for dynamic-extent closed-over bindings
    on x86 and x86-64 can hold unboxed values as well.
  * meta-optimization: improved compilation speed, especially for large
    functions. (lp#792363 and lp#394206)
  * bug fix: bound derivation for floating point operations is now more
    careful about rounding possibly closing open bounds. (lp#793771)
  * bug fix: SB-POSIX:SYSCALL-ERROR's argument is now optional. (accidental
    backwards incompatible change in 1.0.48.27)
  * bug fix: occasional debugger errors in when a type-error occured in a
    function with dynamic-extent &rest list.
  * bug fix: &optional and &key supplied-p arguments in DEFSTRUCT
    boa-construtors can be used to initialized structure slots.
  * bug fix: FMAKUNBOUND removes the MACRO-FUNCTION, should one exist.
    (lp#795705, regression)
  * bug fix: DIRECTORY works better on logical pathnames.
  * bug fix: RUN-PROGRAM no longer fails spuriously when argument strings
    are of the order of ARRAY-TOTAL-SIZE-LIMIT. (lp#787237)
  * bug fix: the compiler no longer constant-folds NaNs in
    MAKE-{SINGLE,DOUBLE}-FLOAT. (lp#486812)
  * bug fix: FORMAT now handles floating point rounding correct, eg.
    (format nil "~,1F" 0.01) => "0.0" instead of "0.01" as previously.
    (lp#308961)
  * bug fix: style warning during lambda-list introspection of generic
    functions with both optional and key argments.
  * bug fix: regalloc doesn't barf on unused TNs due to type-directed constant
    folding. (lp#729765)
  * bug fix: Fixed an off-by-one in MAP-ALLOCATED-OBJECTS that might have caused
    infinite loops.

sbcl_1_0_49

changes in sbcl-1.0.49 relative to sbcl-1.0.48:
  * minor incompatible change: WITH-LOCKED-HASH-TABLE no longer disables
    interrupts for its body.
  * enhancement: source locations are now available for files loaded as
    source, compile-time-too evaluation, and initialization files.
  * enhancement: WITH-COMPILATION-UNIT :SOURCE-NAMESTRING allows providing
    virtual source-file information, eg. overriding input-file of COMPILE-FILE
    when a temporary file is used for compilation.
  * enhancement: ASDF has been updated to version 2.015.3.
  * enhancement: backtraces involving frames from the default evaluator are
    more readable.
  * enhancement: RUN-PROGRAM works with user-defined binary input and output
    streams.
  * enhancement: more informative compile-time warnings and runtime errors for
    type-errors detected at compile-time.
  * enhancement: deadlock detection for mutexes and spinlocks.
  * enhancement: dynamic-extent for &rest lists stack allocate only their
    spines, not their argumets. While portable code should not rely on this,
    particularly in combination with inlining, it should make dynamic-extent
    easier to use safely.
  * enhancement: SB-POSIX improvements:
    ** WNOHANG and WUNTRACED are exported.
    ** SYSCALL-ERROR now also provides the name of the failing system call.
  * enhancement: --script improvements:
    ** errors on standard input, output, and error streams are handled and
       cause scripts to exit silently, making them easier to use in shell
       pipelines.
    ** backtraces from scripts now go to standard error instead of the
       terminal even if one is available.
    ** --script can be an argument, causing the script to be loaded from
       standard input.
  * enhancement: MAKE-ALIEN-STRING provides an easy way to transport lisp
    strings to foreign memory.
  * enhancement: (SETF GC-LOGFILE) allows logging garbage collections to
    a file, making it easier to understand heap dynamics.
  * optimization: using a &REST argument only in APPLY or VALUES-LIST calls
    allows the compiler to automatically elide rest-list allocation so long as
    the call sites are in functions that the compiler knows cannot escape.
    (lp#504575)
  * optimization: CALL-NEXT-METHOD using explicit arguments is faster,
    especially in safe code when none of the required arguments have changed
    their identities.
  * bug fix: blocking reads from FIFOs created by RUN-PROGRAM were
    uninterruptible, as well as blocking reads from socket streams created
    with for which :SERVE-EVENTS NIL. (regression from 1.0.42.43)
  * bug fix: SET-SYNTAX-FROM-CHAR now removes dispatch-macro character syntax
    from the to-char if the from-char is not a dispatch-macro character.
  * bug fix: references to undefined variables in function calls that are
    optimized away now signal a runtime error. (lp#722734)
  * bug fix: miscompilation of MULTIPLE-VALUE-CALL when asserting derived
    types from a function defined in the same file. (regression from
    1.0.43.57)
  * bug fix: TRULY-THE forms are now macroexpandable and setf-expandable.
    (lp#771673)
  * bug fix: spurious errors during QUIT when standard streams were closed.

    are no longer caught. (reverted to pre 1.0.34 behaviour)
  * optimization: slightly faster ISQRT. (lp#713343)
  * bug fix: better support for Solaris /bin/sh in sh-based tests.

    to (FUNCALL #'(LAMBDA ...) ...).
  * bug fix: ((LAMBDA ...) ...) forms with invalid argument counts resulted in
    a compile-time error. (lp#720382)

    without complaints.
  * bug fix: less verbose source forms for functions from EVAL. (lp#747485)
  * bug fix: sense of SLOT-BOUNDP-USING-CLASS was inverted in a MAKE-INSTANCE
    optimization. (regression from 1.0.45.18/1.0.46.15)
  * bug fix: package locks did not protects against compile-time side-effects
    of DEFUN. (lp#675584)
  * bug fix: --dynamic-space-size argument is validated more carefully.
    (lp#721457)
  * bug fix: memory fault from printing a malformed simple-condition.
    (lp#705690)
  * bug fix: redefining classes so that slot-definition classes change now
    engages the obsolete instance protocol. (lp#766271)

    (lp#767959)
  * bug fix: compiling calls to eg. MEMBER with massive constant list arguments
    could exhaust stack.

sbcl_1_0_47

changes in sbcl-1.0.47 relative to sbcl-1.0.46:
  * bug fix: fix mach port rights leaks in mach exception handling code on
    darwin/x86 and /x86-64. (thanks to Willem Oudshoorn for motivation and the
    initial patch)
  * enhancement: --script muffles style-warnings and compiler notes. (lp#677779)
  * enhancement: redefinition warnings for macros from different files. (lp#434657)
  * enhancement: better MACHINE-VERSION on Darwin x86 and x86-64. (lp#668332)
  * enhancement: (FORMAT "foo" ...) and similar signal a compile-time warning. (lp#327223)
  * enhancement: no more "in: LAMBDA NIL" messages from the compiler for forms
    processed using EVAL -- now the appropriate toplevel form is reported instead.
  * enhancement: more legible style-warnings for inappropriate IGNORE and IGNORABLE
    declarations. (lp#726331)
  * enhancement: :NOT-NULL option has been added to alien C-STRING type to indicate
    that NIL/NULL is excluded from the type.
  * enhancement: SB-INTROSPECT:MAP-ROOT allows mapping over pointers contained in
    arbitrary objects.
  * optimization: SLOT-VALUE &co are faster in the presence of SLOT-VALUE-USING-CLASS
    and its compatriots.

  * bug fix: SB-DEBUG:BACKTRACE-AS-LIST guards against potentially leaking
    stack-allocated values out of their dynamic-extent. (lp#310175)
  * bug fix: attempts to use SB-SPROF for wallclock profiling on threaded
    x86-64 builds caused a type-error.
  * bug fix: calling COMPILE with something else than a lambda-expression as the
    second argument reports a more sensible error. (lp#718905)
  * bug fix: invalid combinations of :PREDICATE and :TYPE options in DEFSTRUCT
    are detected. (lp#520607)
  * bug fix: constant keyword argument checking didn't take :ALLOW-OTHER-KEYS
    into account.
  * bug fix: SLOT-BOUNDP information is correct during MAKE-INSTANCE in the
    presence of (SETF SLOT-VALUE-USING-CLASS) and SLOT-BOUNDP-USING-CLASS
    methods. (regression from 1.0.45.18)
  * bug fix: INITIALIZE-INSTANCE :AROUND methods supplying initargs via
    CALL-NEXT-METHOD work correctly. (regression from 1.0.45.19)
  * bug fix: several foreign functions accepting string also accepted NIL and
    consequently caused a memory fault at 0 now signal a type-error instead.
    (lp#721087)
  * bug fix: under rare circumstances, constraint propagation could rewrite a
    variable reference to refer to a variable not in scope, causing an error
    during physical environment analysis when attempting to close over the
    variable. (lp#551227)

debian/1.0.46.0-1

sbcl.1.0.46

sbcl_1_0_46

changes in sbcl-1.0.46 relative to sbcl-1.0.45:
  * enhancement: largefile support on Solaris.
  * enhancement: SB-PROFILE:REPORT now supports :LIMIT and :PRINT-NO-CALL-LIST
    arguments (lp#710017)
  * enhancement: SB-PCL:+SLOT-UNBOUND+ is exported, making it possible to
    distinguish unbound instance slots when using STANDARD-INSTANCE-ACCESS
    &co. (lp#718039)
  * optimization: ERROR and CERROR are approximately 5 times faster.
  * optimization: optimized constructors are used for MAKE-INSTANCE of classes
    with applicable non-standard (SETF SLOT-VALUE-USING-CLASS),
    SLOT-BOUNDP-USING-CLASS, and INITIALIZE-INSTANCE :AROUND methods, speeding
    up instance creation in those cases.
  * optimization: arithmetic operations with multiple constant arguments in now
    have them reduced at compile-time. (lp#676414)
  * optimization: determining current character position on string-streams for
    pretty-printing was overly slow.
  * bug fix: local tail calls to DYNAMIC-EXTENT functions can no longer cause
    lifetime analysis to overwrite closed-over variables (lp#681092).
  * bug fix: encoding errors from some multibyte external formats such as EUC-JP
    were not handled correctly (lp#713063).
  * bug fix: printing waitqueue objects without setting *PRINT-CIRCLE* to T is now
    safe (lp#673630).
  * bug fix: Solaris/x86-64 wasn't getting built with lutex support by
    mistake. (lp#667297).
  * bug fix: CONSTANTLY generated functions had bogus lambda-lists. (lp#713626)
  * bug fix: RUN-PROGRAM :PTY option was racy on OpenBSD. (lp#669485)
  * bug fix: UNINTERN takes a symbol, not a symbol designator -- could previously
    unintern the wrong symbol with the same name. (lp#693796)
  * bug fix: COPY-PPRINT-DISPATCH always has access to a pristine table,
    making it possible to restore the initial table if it has been messed up.
    (lp#678409)

debian/1.0.45.0-1

sbcl.1.0.45

sbcl_1_0_45

changes in sbcl-1.0.45 relative to sbcl-1.0.44:
  * enhancement: ~/ and ~user/ are treated specially in pathnames.
    Refer to documentation for details.
  * enhancement: ASDF has been updated to version 2.010.
  * optimization: mutated closed-over variables that are only accessed by
    DYNAMIC-EXTENT closures (currently only FLET and LABELS functions
    declared to be DYNAMIC-EXTENT) are stored directly in their containing
    stack frame, rather than allocating a VALUE-CELL (lp#586103).
  * optimization: UNWIND-PROTECT cleanup functions are now declared
    DYNAMIC-EXTENT.
  * bug fix: backtracing function with &REST arguments now shows the full
    argument list. (lp#310173)
  * bug fix: return types for functions with complex lambda-lists are now
    derived properly (lp#384892)
  * bug fix: when SPEED > SPACE compiling CONCATENATE 'STRING with constant
    long string arguments slowed the compiler down to a crawl.
  * bug fix: closure VALUE-CELLs are no longer stack-allocated (lp#308934).
  * bug fix: non-standard MAKE-METHOD-LAMBDA methods could break RETURN-FROM
    in the DEFMETHOD body.
  * bug fix: #<SB-C::DEFINED-FUN ...> should no longer appear in compiler
    messages, being instead replaced with the corresponding function name.
  * bug fix: don't derive overly complex unions of numeric types for arithmetic
    operators. (lp#309448)
