I finished putting sbcl-0.8.19 tarballs up on the project file release
page perhaps half an hour ago; party on.
from the NEWS file:
changes in sbcl-0.8.19 relative to sbcl-0.8.18:
* new port: SBCL now works in native 64-bit mode on x86-64/Linux
platform. The port supports 61-bit fixnums, large memory spaces
and reloading shared object files.
* enhancement: saving cores with foreign code loaded is now
supported on ppc/Darwin in addition to the previously supported
platforms.
* enhancement: the statistical profiler now walks deeper into the
call stack for more meaningful call-graphs and accrued time
reports (x86/x86-64 only). It also now reports time spent in
foreign functions.
* enhancement: it is now possible to trace most individual methods
of a generic function in addition to tracing the generic function
itself.
* bug fix: invalid :DEFAULT-INITARGS are detected in compiled calls
to MAKE-INSTANCE.
* bug fix: defaulted initargs are passed to INITIALIZE-INSTANCE and
SHARED-INITIALIZE methods from compiled calls to MAKE-INSTANCE.
* bug fix: COERCE to (COMPLEX FLOAT) of a complex number no longer
produces an error. (thanks to Vincent Arkesteijn)
* bug fix: NAMESTRING on pathnames with :WILD components in their
directories works correctly. (thanks to Artem V. Andreev)
* fixed bug 125: compiler preserves identity of closures. (reported
by Gabe Garza)
* bug fixed: functions with &REST arguments sometimes failed with
"Undefined function" when compiled with (DEBUG 3). (reported by
