Changelog for
sbcl-1.4.7-101.1.x86_64.rpm :
Tue May 1 14:00:00 2018 kasimir_AATToutlook.de
- Patch modified
* 0003-Add-RPM_OPT_FLAGS-to-CFLAGS-for-Linux-builds.patch
* dont-split-doc.patch
- Update to version 1.4.7
* enhancement: better handling of unknown keyword arguments (#1750466)
* enhancement: namestrings can now be computed for certain pathnames
that previously did not have namestrings because of #\\. characters
in their name and/or type components.
* bug fix: compiling a SLEEP call with a float positive infinity
argument no longer causes an internal error (#1754081)
* bug fix: keyword arguments provided to a generic function with
EQL-specialized methods are checked more correctly (reported by Syll, #1760987)
- Changes in version 1.4.6
* enhancement: DISASSEMBLE on a symbol naming a macro will disassemble
the expander, not the code that traps attempted FUNCALL of the macro.
* enhancement: The sb-sprof contrib now provides an experimental
interface for accessing collected profiler data.
* enhancement: The instruction-level profiling of the sb-prof contrib
annotates the disassembler output more efficiently.
* optimization: improved dynamic-extent handling of nested variables.
- Changes in version 1.4.5
* minor incompatible change: building with/without the :sb-package-locks
feature is no longer an option. Package locks are always compiled in,
and removing :sb-package-locks from
*features
* will have no effect.
* enhancement: FIND-PACKAGE does not acquire a mutex
* enhancement: cheneygc can perform heap relocation on startup
* enhancement: in threaded builds, finalizers execute in a system-internal
thread so that a user thread which invokes GC is unblocked from performing
work as soon it returns from GC and invokes any post-GC hooks. As such,
it is more important than before to avoid assumptions about special
variable bindings in finalizers, even in single-threaded code.
* optimization: faster (funcall (or function symbol)) on x86-64.
- Changes in version 1.4.4
* bug fix: pathname accessors such as PATHNAME-DIRECTORY work on SYNONYM-STREAMs.
* bug fix: (pathname-{device,directory,name,type} ... :case :common) works
as expected. In particular MAKE-PATHNAME composed with the accessors
roundtrips properly when both use the same :case. (#1739906)
* bug fix: DIRECTORY no longer gets confused when the value
of
*DEFAULT-PATHNAME-DEFAULTS
* has a name or type component. (#1740563)
* bug fix: pattern pieces in pathname components are correctly escaped during unparsing.
* bug fix: DELETE-DIRECTORY no longer signals an error when the
directory is supplied as a pathname with name and/or type components
containing escaped characters. (#1740624)
* bug fix: weak hash-tables no longer cause GC time to scale
superlinearly (#1241771)
* bug fix: CANCEL-FINALIZATION operates in approximately constant
time per operation (#1587983)
* bug fix: big-endian MIPS systems now (mostly) work again (broken since 1.3.14.x).
* bug fix: backtrace from arg-count errors on systems other than
x86, x86-64, ARM, and ARM64 now works again.
* bug fix: backtrace from asynchronous interrupts on non-x86,
non-x86-64 systems should now be more reliable.
* enhancement: warnings and errors referring to bindings established
by LET, LET
*, FLET and LABELS point to the offending form more accurately.
* enhancement: backtrace for invalid argument count produces the exact
supplied arguments including the extra ones on all platforms
(no longer just x86, x86-64, ARM, and ARM64).
- Changes in version 1.4.3
* enhancement: SLEEP respects deadlines established by SB-SYS:WITH-DEADLINE.
* bug fix: DECODE-TIMEOUT and operators accepting a timeout no longer signal
an error when called with an argument that is of type (real 0) but not (unsigned-byte 62) (#1727789)
* bug fix: fixed heap exhaustion bug when consing millions of small objects
* bug fix: sb-safepoint builds are now a lot less prone to deadlocks and
odd crashes (#1424031, #1268710)
* bug fix: argumentless CALL-NEXT-METHOD where specialized-to-T or
unspecialized parameters are mutated now uses the original (non-mutated)
parameter values (#1734771)
* bug fix: memory faults from lisp no longer use (thread-and-interrupt unsafe)
global storage for fault addresses (everywhere), and now have cleaner
backtraces (on x86 and x86-64). (#309068)
* bug fix: pathnames with a directory component of the form
(:absolute {:up,:wild,:wild-inferiors}) no longer fail to unparse. (#1738775)
* bug fix: more reliable signal handling on macOS.
- Changes in version 1.4.2
* minor incompatible change: SB-EXT:QUIT is no longer marked as deprecated
and behaves like SB-EXT:EXIT.
* enhancement: ASDF updated to 3.3.1. The ASDF release is dedicated to the
late Elias Pipping who put enormous amounts of work into it despite his
terminal illness. Thank you and rest in peace. (#1681201)
* enhancement: alien routines compiled with \'-fsanitize=thread\' and/or
\'-fsanitize=memory\' cause fewer false positives in error reporting.
* optimization: fewer instances of consing float constants at runtime.
* bug fix: a number of compiler bugs detected by Paul F. Dietz\' randomized
tester. (#1731503, #1730699, #1723993, #1730434, #1661911, #1729639,
[#1729471], #1728692)
* bug fix: better errors from NAMESTRING and friends on pathnames with
no namestrings. (#792154)
* bug fix: EQUAL and EQUALP compiler transforms were too confident in
deriving a result. (#1732277, #1732225)
* bug fix: FILL sometimes returned the underlying data vector rather
than the given array. (#1732553)
* bug fix: SEARCH returned the wrong answer in some cases. (#1732952)
* bug fix: the type (COMPLEX INTEGER) behaves more as specified by
Function TYPEP, which has stronger constraints than System Class
COMPLEX. (Reported by Eric Marsden, #1733400)
Thu Nov 9 13:00:00 2017 sweet_f_aAATTgmx.de
- Update to version 1.4.1
* optimization: faster foreign callbacks.
* enhancement: complex arrays can be stack allocated.
* enhancement: PROCESS-KILL now exists on win32 and PROCESS-PID
actually returns the PID.
* optimization: the register allocation method used by the
compiler when optimizing for speed is now faster for functions
with large bodies.
* bug fix: SB-INTROSPECT:ALLOCATION-INFORMATION works on
big-endian CPUs (fixes #490490 for real rather than by
disabling a test)
* bug fix: code objects and bignums of large enough size to be
placed on GC pages without any other object no longer cause
accidental copying during garbage collection. (gencgc only)
* bug fix: sb-fasteval failure with 0-argument lambdas (#1722715)
* bug fix: RUN-PROGRAM doesn\'t leak handles on win32 and
PROCESS-CLOSE doesn\'t crash. (#1724472)
- Changes in version 1.4.0
* minor incompatible change: DESTRUCTURING-BIND treats non-toplevel
() as nested empty pattern. This seems to be what the standard
mandates, so conforming code should not be affected.
* ehancement: (GC :GEN 7) with gencgc will zero-fill dead
pseudo-static objects so that they do not spuriously cause
reachability of objects that would have been otherwise dead.
* enhancement: PROCESS-STATUS now tracks stopped and continued
processes properly (also fixes #1624941, based on patch by Elias
Pipping).
* bug fix: INSPECT handles errors signaled while printing slot
values. (#454682)
* bug fix: DESCRIBE works on classes like it used to.
* bug fix:
*LOAD-PATHNAME
* and
*LOAD-TRUENAME
* are bound to
pathnames when processing a sysinit or userinit file
* bug fix: save-lisp-and-die is able to collect more garbage on
non-x86oid gencgc targets.
* bug fix: fixed out-of-bounds array read in optimized POSITION
on bit-vectors
* bug fix: signal emulation respects the 128-byte stack red zone
on x86-64 macOS.
Fri Aug 11 14:00:00 2017 sweet_f_aAATTgmx.de
- Update to version 1.3.20
* minor incompatible change: DEF{GENERIC,METHOD} no longer accept
some illegal lambda lists such as (defgeneric bar (foo &key
foo)) or (defgeneric baz (t)) that were accepted before.
* optimization: a valueless &AUX binding in a BOA constructor
does not force all slots reads in safe code to perform a full
type check.
* optimization: ATOMIC-PUSH and ATOMIC-POP generate better code
* bug fix: the low-level debugger would erroneously print - or
not print as the case may be - \"(bad-address)\" for some objects
depending whether the --dynamic-space-size argument was used at
Lisp startup
* bug fix: a DEFCONSTANT with a non non-eql-comparable object as
the value could cause miscompilation if that constant appeared
as the default expression for an &OPTIONAL binding
* bug fix: generic function lambda lists are now checked for
repeated and otherwise illegal entries. (#1704114)
* bug fix: setting gencgc_verbose = 1 could cause deadlock in
fprintf() depending on the platform\'s stdio implementation. The
relevant code has been changed to use snprintf() and write()
instead.
Tue Jul 11 14:00:00 2017 sweet_f_aAATTgmx.de
- Update to version 1.3.19
* enhancement: specialized arrays can be printed readably without using
* read-eval
*
* enhancement: SB-DEBUG:PRINT-BACKTRACE truncates huge string arguments.
The full string remains available for inspection via (SB-DEBUG:ARG).
* bug fix: backtracing from several threads at once could fail
* bug fix: floating-point infinities could not be used as keys
in EQUALP hash tables. (lp#1696274)
* bug fix: random sb-fasteval failures. (lp#1642708)
* bug fix: align the stack in callback wrappers to defend against C
compiler over-aggressive use of SIMD. (lp#1697528)
* bug fix: don\'t try to find the class when reporting that a class does
not exist for a primitive type. (lp#1697226)
- Changes in version 1.3.18
* minor incompatible change: existing values of CFLAGS, ASFLAGS,
CPPFLAGS, and LINKFLAGS will be incorporated into C compiler
invocations when building from source.
* minor incompatible change: the result of WRITE-TO-STRING may be
a BASE-STRING if all characters written are of type BASE-CHAR.
* minor incompatible change: the broadcast stream with no output
streams is a singleton object. That object satisfies OPEN-STREAM-P
regardless of how many times CLOSE is invoked on it.
* enhancement: x86[-64] backends contain an experimental feature
which aids in demonstrating reachability of any object starting
from a tenured object or a thread stack by producing a proof
as a sequence of pointers to follow.
The file \"tests/traceroot.test.sh\" contains an example usage.
* enhancement: if the alien symbol \"gc_coalesce_string_literals\" is
set to 1 prior to SAVE-LISP-AND-DIE, then similar string constants
loaded from different fasl files may be collapsed to one object.
If the variable is set to 2, then additionally strings which are
STRING= in code resulting from COMPILE can be coalesced.
For instance, two functions returning the literal string \"HI\"
might return EQ strings after collapsing, which may be undesired
in a particular use. The flag pertains to gencgc only.
* enhancement: SXHASH values on pathnames are better distributed
* bug fix: MAKE-PATHNAME removes empty strings as components of a
directory, as is permitted: \"Whenever a pathname is constructed
the components may be canonicalized if appropriate.\"
* optimization: various printer and FORMAT performance enhancements.
* bug fix: GET-FOREGROUND no longer fails in case all other interactive
threads exit (lp#1682671, reported by Syll)
* bug fix: RELEASE-FOREGROUND always removes the current thread from the
list of interactive threads. (lp#1682867, reported by Syll)
- Changes in version 1.3.17
* enhancement: memory overhead from the garbage collector\'s metadata
is reduced on 64-bit architectures; no change for 32-bit.
* enhancement: further garbage collector speedups affecting
pinned objects on conservative backends, and simple-vectors.
* enhancement: on Linux a custom handler for SIGSEGV can be called
for page faults outside of dynamic space by changing the C symbol
\"sbcl_fallback_sigsegv_handler\".
* bug fix: sb-cover does not lose source positions for AND/OR/COND.
* bug fix: random disassembler failures. (lp#1527931)
* The bundled sb-md5 contrib has been updated to release 2.0.4
which is licensed under Creative Commons CC0 per author\'s statement

Tue Mar 28 14:00:00 2017 sweet_f_aAATTgmx.de
- Update to version 1.3.16
* optimization: various small tweaks give around 5% faster garbage
collection
* bug fix: better detection of when an impossible code path does
not need a warning. (lp#1668619)
* bug fix: stronger attempts to disable position-independent
executable building. (lp#1668986, patch from Mark Wright)
* bug fix: OPEN :IF-EXISTS NIL signalled a condition on Windows.
(lp#1674437, reported by Jan Idzikowski)
- Changes in version 1.3.15
* minor incompatible change: the reader will when feasible create
new symbols using a BASE-STRING for the print name. Additionally,
string literals can favor the base-string type if desired, though
the default is to always return UTF-32 strings for compatibility.
A preference for base-string does not disable reading Unicode.
The choice is controlled via (SETF READTABLE-BASE-CHAR-PREFERENCE).
If Unicode was disabled at build time, this setting does nothing.
* enhancement: SBCL generates more debug information by default.
* enhancement: type errors provide context information, such as which
variable is being bound, which slot of which structure is being set.
* enhancement: if #+immobile-symbols is in build-time
*FEATURES
* (not
enabled by default), then symbols will never be moved in memory
except by SAVE-LISP-AND-DIE. Immobility has helpful implications for
code generation as well as interaction with foreign routines.
This feature can only be enabled if #+immobile-space is enabled.
* enhancement: undefined function errors can be restarted on x86-64, to
either retry calling the function again or call a user supplied function.
* enhancement: sb-ext:restrict-compiler-policy accepts an upper bound in
addition to a lower bound.
* enhancement: #+immobile-code improves the speed of function calling.
Some delay may be noticed when redefining an existing function
from a saved core file however.
* defaults change: sb-ext:
*disassemble-annotate
* default to NIL, due to its
poor reliability.
* new feature: SB-LINKABLE-RUNTIME, allowing linking with extra object
files to help with delivery of executables. (Thanks to François-René
Rideau)
* bug fix: data race in GENTEMP fixed - it can no longer return the
same interned symbol to multiple threads if called concurrently
* bug fix: interrupting LOADing of FASLs does not leave functions without
source locations. (lp#540276)
* bug fix: DYNAMIC-EXTENT-declared results of NOTINLINE local functions were
treated as if they were actually stack allocated (lp#1659964)
* bug fix: correctly handle the case of a non-local exit within a function
terminating the extent of dynamic-extent, dynamic-bound variables in the
presence of multiple-values (lp#1655011)
* bug fix: handling of SB-SYS:WITH-PINNED-OBJECTS in the interpreters (both
sb-eval and sb-fasteval) now actually pins objects on gencgc.
* bug fix: AVX registers are preserved during exceptions on x86-64 macOS.
* bug fix: (directory \"SOMETHING/
*/
*
*/MORE\") is no longer equivalent to
(directory \"SOMETHING/
*
*/MORE\")
* bug fix: better console IO on Windows (lp#1660906)
- rebase 0003-Add-RPM_OPT_FLAGS-to-CFLAGS-for-Linux-builds.patch
- rebase sbcl-1.1.2-install.patch
- remove sbcl-disable-frlock-test.patch
Wed Feb 22 13:00:00 2017 sweet_f_aAATTgmx.de
- Update to version 1.3.14
* minor incompatible change: the SB-PCL walker no longer recognizes
macros expanding into a DECLARE expression. This is not a language change,
since ANSI forbids such usage (X3J13 issue DECLARE-MACROS:FLUSH).
* enhancement: for several macros such as MULTIPLE-VALUE-{BIND,SETQ}, COND,
DO{,
*,LIST}, {RESTART,HANDLER}-{BIND,CASE},
*CASE, conditions signaled
during macroexpansion point to the form that caused the problem more
accurately.
* enhancement: the \"--noinform\" command-line option inhibits output from
save-lisp-and-die in addition to removing the startup banner.
* bug fix: PROCESS-KILL failed to return errno if the system call failed
* optimization: slightly more comprehensive treatment of the keyword
arguments to MAKE-ARRAY in compiler transformations.
- Changes in version 1.3.13
* enhancement: SET triggers package locks on undefined variables.
(lp#1645152)
* enhancement: new Windows specific option to run-program, :escape-arguments
(lp#1503496)
* enhancement: recompiling a MAKE-INSTANCE form with an initarg :INITARG
CONSTANT where CONSTANT names a constant variable picks up the new value
of CONSTANT in case it has been redefined. (lp#1644944)
* optimization: faster TYPEP on undefined at compile-time types and upcoming
class definitions. (lp#1082967)
* optimization: memory consumption of each STANDARD-OBJECT instance is
reduced by 2 words if the compact-instance-header feature is enabled.
* optimization: CONDITION instances are quicker to allocate.
* optimization: unoptimized calls to FILL on specialized vectors are now
just as fast as T vectors.
* bug fix: get-timezone returns corret DST on 64-bit Windows. (lp#1641058)
* bug fix: cross reference information in fasls is no longer incompatible
between different cores (lp#1648186)
- Changes in version 1.3.13
* enhancement: on x86-64, compiled functions loaded from fasl files
can not be moved, but can be freed, by GC. Additionally, COMPILE will
produce immobile code if SB-C::
*COMPILE-TO-MEMORY-SPACE
* is set to
:IMMOBILE. (Caution: the flag is experimental and subject to change.)
The benefits are better physical separation of code from data,
and potentially easier examination of live images by external tools.
* enhancement: the docstring for SAVE-LISP-AND-DIE has been amended to
say that the :ROOT-STRUCTURES parameter is not meaningless on gencgc,
depending on the platform.
* bug fix: calling a named function (e.g. a DEFUN) concurrently with
redefining that same function could lead to execution of random bytes.
* bug fix: yes-or-no-p accepts formatter functions (lp#1639490)
* bug fix: better handling of exceptions on macOS.
- rebase 0003-Add-RPM_OPT_FLAGS-to-CFLAGS-for-Linux-builds.patch
- remove sbcl-cast.patch (it\'s upstream now)
Thu Nov 3 13:00:00 2016 sweet_f_aAATTgmx.de
- Update to version 1.3.11
* minor incompatible change: SB-EXT:
*INTEXP-MAXIMUM-EXPONENT
* is
removed.
* enhancement: TRACE ... :REPORT {TRACE,NIL} now work as
advertised in the documentation string (based on patch by
Patrick Stein)
* enhancement: support unboxed signed-word structure slots on
x86, x86-64 and ARM64. (lp#377616)
* optimization: faster logical bit-array operations on
multidimensional arrays.
* optimization: better GC performance in the presence of many
threads. (patch by Ilya Perminov, lp#1339924)
* optimization: multiple-value-call is optimized with multiple
argument forms, not just one. (lp#753803)
* bug fix: MAKE-ALIEN-STRING returns the number of allocated
bytes as a second value as advertised (reported by Johann
\'Myrkraverk\' Oskarsson)
* bug fix: when TO-READTABLE is supplied to COPY-READTABLE, it
will contain only the macros in FROM-READTABLE and no others.
(lp#1631506)
* enhancement: gencgc has been modified for x86-64 on Linux and
macOS to a support mark-and-sweep as well as the traditional
copying strategy. It is conceivable that some applications
might be adversely affected. Please see \':immobile-space\' in
\'base-target-features.lisp-expr\' for further details, and
possible reasons to disable this feature.
* enhancement: x86-64 supports shrinking the fixed overhead in a
structure from 2 words to 1 word, reducing memory consumption
in applications which create many small structures.
- Changes in version 1.3.10
* enhancement: more compact low-level error signaling code
* enhancement: more compact encoding of cross-reference
information
* optimization: faster out of line fixnum-float comparisons.
* optimization: filling a known simple-vector with a constant
value is about as fast in unoptimized code as in code compiled
with (SPEED 3), and the x86-64 implementation is able to use
SSE instructions.
* bug fix: correctly handle the case of a non-local exit within a
function terminating the extent of dynamic-extent functions and
variables in the presence of multiple-values (lp#1563127)
* bug fix: restore builds on the latest OSX with the latest
Xcode (lp#1470996)
- Changes in version 1.3.9
* minor incompatible change: NAMESTRING prefers to return a
BASE-STRING instead of (ARRAY CHARACTER (
*)) when possible.
* enhancement: cached make-instance/allocate-instance
constructors can now get garbage collected.
* optimization: better performance for some unoptimized
operations on complex numbers.
* bug fix: using the options :LOCAL-NICKNAMES and :LOCK in the
same DEFPACKAGE form no longer signals a bogus error
- Changes in version 1.3.8
* minor incompatible change: the system now understands that the
CONDITION type is disjoint with many other system types.
* minor incompatible change: argument types in condition report
functions are now declared (in combination with the above
change, this can result in early detection of erroneous code).
* enhancement: simple arrays of any rank can be stack-allocated
on platforms supporting stack allocation of vectors.
* optimization: improved type derivation for FIND, POSITION,
COUNT, SEARCH, MISMATCH and other array and sequence functions.
* optimization: ALLOCATE-INSTANCE is now as fast as
MAKE-INSTANCE.
* optimization: more efficient CHANGE-CLASS.
* bug fix: versions of getresuid() and getresgid() in SB-POSIX no
longer cause memory faults, and should work properly
(lp#1603806, reported by Kieran Grant)
* bug fix: handle ENOENT from getprotobyname() (lp#1596043,
reported by Stephen Hassard)
- remove upstream patches:
* 0001-Handle-ENOENT-from-getprotobyname.patch
* 0002-sb-posix-Fix-getresuid-and-getresgid.patch

- ExcludeArch POWER64 architecture, no POWER64 port available
Wed Sep 30 14:00:00 2015 kgronlundAATTsuse.com
- Update to version 1.2.15
+ new feature: DEPRECATION declaration for functions, variables
and types causes {EARLY,LATE,FINAL}-DEPRECATION-WARNING to be
signaled when subject of the declaration is used. Integrated
with DESCRIBE, DOCUMENTATION and
SB-CLTL2:{VARIABLE,FUNCTION}-INFORMATION. Documented in the
\"Deprecation\" section of the manual.
+ enhancement: ASDF updated to 3.1.5. (#1476867)
+ enhancement: definitions within PROGN get proper source
locations when compiled (needs latest Slime to take advantage
of this). (#1473147)
+ enhancement: source locations for DEFCLASS slots now point
directly to the slot definitions, not the whole DEFCLASS form.
+ bug fix: better source location in the presence of quoted
forms. (#1370561)
+ bug fix: better source locations inside backqoute. (#1361502)
+ bug fix: HANDLER-BIND requires that the handler-function be a
function designator at the time of binding establishment.
(#1480679)
+ bug fix: inlined functions surrounded by nested macrolets are
properly inlined. (#309123)
- Changes in version 1.2.14
+ minor incompatible change: The name of a compiled anonymous
lambda as returned by the third value of
FUNCTION-LAMBDA-EXPRESSION can have a lambda-list-like list
following the introductory LAMBDA that is not in general a
syntactically valid lambda list. Specifically, it won\'t retain
default values, supplied-p variables, or &KEY or &AUX bindings.
+ enhancement: DESTRUCTURING-BIND has been totally reimplemented
from scratch to address a handful of performance and correctness
issues. Some minor behavioral differences exist regarding order of
evaluation of default forms for unsupplied &OPTIONAL and &KEY
arguments when nested destructuring patterns are involved.
(#707556, #707573, #707578, #708051)
+ enhancement: DEFCONSTANT and DEFSTRUCT respect package locks.
(#1186238, #1036716)

argument, FILTER, a callback which controls which decomposed
characters are collected. Useful for stripping away diacritics
more efficiently.
+ bug fix: (TYPE-OF ARRAY) for a non-simple array is subject to
change after a call of ADJUST-ARRAY. (#1333731)
+ bug fix: Dynamic-extent allocation with a loop between
allocating a value and the start of its environment no longer
discards the allocated data when the loop is taken. (#1472785)
+ bug fix: Variable-reference elimination no longer generates
incorrect code under certain circumstances. (#1446891)
+ bug fix: variables with EQL types are no longer treated as
constants by VOPs, which caused problems with closures being
allocated for such variables, but they remained unused. (#1390149)
+ bug fix: Windows installer generates registry key name
correctly. (#1476447)
Tue Jul 14 14:00:00 2015 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.2.13
* Incompatible change:
+ on success, TRY-SEMAPHORE and WAIT-ON-SEMAPHORE return the new
count
* Enhancement:
+ WAIT-ON-SEMAPHORE accepts a decrement parameter
+ JOIN-THREAD allows distinguishing timeout vs.
abort in all situations
+ On Windows DBG_PRINTEXCEPTION_C is handled and its
message is printed. (#1437947)
* Bug-fix:
+ TRUENAME works properly on broken symlinks presented
as directories. (#1458164)
+ Inlined DPB and DEPOSIT-FIELD don\'t interfere with
left-to-right order of argument evaluation. (#1458190)
+ (SETF (LDB (BYTE 1 2 JUNK) X) 0) is rightly rejected.
+ DEFSETF lambda lists should not permit argument
destructuring.
+ calls to (SETF SLOT-VALUE) on a missing slot would in
certain situations incorrectly return the result of a
SLOT-MISSING method instead of always returning the new
value. (#1460381)
+ a DEFMACRO occurring not at toplevel and capturing
parts of its lexical environment (thus being a closure)
caused expressions involving the macro name to cause corruption
in the pretty-printer due to faulty introspection of the lambda
list of a closure.
+ out of line MAP/MAP-INTO check that the results produced by the
function are of the matching sequence type. (#1459581)
+ pretty-printing of \'(LET `((,X ,Y)) :B) is handled correctly.
Wed Jun 17 14:00:00 2015 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.2.12
* Minor incompatible change:
+ the SB-C::
*POLICY
* variable is no longer a list. Code which
manipulated it as such (including but not limited to non-bundled
releases of ASDF) will need to be revised.
* Enhancement:
+ The input stream for COMPILE-FILE implements STREAM-LINE-COLUMN.
+ EVAL errors that occur by way of LOAD report the starting line
and column number of the erring toplevel form. (#565247)
* Optimization:
+ Better MAP and MAP-INTO on known vector result types.
* Bug fix:
+ Read/modify/write macros accessing a place which is a composition
of CAR+CDR operations, such as (SHIFTF (CADR X) (ELT V 0)), do
not access subforms more than once. (#1450968)
+ Short form of DEFSETF no longer allows trailing junk.
+ DEFINE-MODIFY-MACRO respects the provisions of CLHS 5.1.3
regarding argument evaluation order. (#1452539)
+ POP works as specified in CLHS if the setter for its argument has
a side-effect on the existing CAR value. (#1454021)
+ Reading \"#()\" with a positive numeric argument signals a reader
error. As specified, reading \"#1()\" has undefined consequences,
so correct portable code should be indifferent to this.
(#1252100)
+ Malformed reader conditionals such as \"(#-no-such-feature)\"
and \"(#+sbcl)\" no longer parse as NIL. (#1454400)
Sat May 2 14:00:00 2015 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.2.11
* Enhancement:
+ SET-PPRINT-DISPATCH will warn when given an expression in
which any part is unrecognizable as a legal type-specifier.
The dispatch table will be altered, but the new entry is
disabled. Subsequent type-defining forms will cause
pprint-dispatch tables to re-examine whether any disabled
entries should be enabled. (lp#1429520)
+ Loading code containing calls to a deprecated function will,
under most circumstances, signal warnings similar to compiling
such code. The usual caveat holds about not detecting calls
through a computed name, as in (funcall
(intern \"DEPRECATED-FUN\" \"SB-EXT\")).
+ (SB-EXT:COMPILE-FILE-LINE) is a new macro that expands to a
constant (VALUES integer integer) indicating the source
line/column from which it was read, intended for logging Lisp
runtime errors in a style similar to that afforded by the C
preprocessor __LINE__ macro. Similarly
(SB-EXT:COMPILE-FILE-POSITION) returns a position in characters.
+ improved source locations for VOPs, alien types and declarations.
* Bug fix:
+ Functions in :FINAL deprecation have the correct docstring.
No visible change, as no such functions presently exist.
(lp#1439151)
+ (SETF (FDEFINITION this) (FDEFINITION OTHER)) signals an error
if OTHER names either a macro or special-operator. (lp#1439921)
- Rebase all patches.
Wed Apr 1 14:00:00 2015 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.2.10
* One thing that is not mentioned in the release notes, but which
has been exercising developers recently, is a warning for the near
future: some interfaces which are currently in \"early\" deprecation
status (and so are emitting style-warnings at compilation-time)
will in the next release cycle or two start emitting full warnings,
either at compilation time or at load time. Particular interfaces
signalling warnings causing problems to some users include:
SB-EXT:QUIT, and the SB-THREAD:SPINLOCK API. If anyone is using
those, now is the time to update to SB-EXT:EXIT and
SB-THREAD:MUTEX respectively. (See also the \"Deprecated Interfaces\"
chapter in the manual).
* minor incompatible change:
+ all SOCKINT::WIN32-
* functions have been deprecated with
EARLY deprecation state
+ performing introspection via the system-internal SB-INT:INFO
function could expose that :TYPE :TRANSLATOR is not
necessarily a function, as it always was before. (Affects
swank-fancy-inspector)
* enhancement:
+ The value of SXHASH on bit-vectors of length equal to the
word size now depends on the vector\'s contents instead of
being constant; its value on bit-vectors of length divisible
by the word size now depends also on the contents of the
vector\'s last word.
* bug-fix:
+ sb-bsd-sockets on win32 uses proper C function declarations.
(lp#1426667)
+ A new dead code elimination phase removes dead code loops
that confuse stack analysis. (lp#1255782, lp#308914)
+ A toplevel form which was simple enough to bypass the main
compiler in COMPILE-FILE, and which contained an empty SETQ or
PROGN would produce an invalid fasl file. (lp#1427050)
+ The compiler no longer signals an internal error when
encountering invalid FUNCTION forms like (function 1)
+ express proper dependencies in the ASDF contrib, to support
systems where make runs in parallel. (lp#1434768; thanks to
Nikhil Benesch)
- Apply disable-localport-bsd-sockets-test.patch for all since
without it random build failures are happening in OBS even though
local builds are just fine without disabling the bsd-socket-tests
Sat Feb 28 13:00:00 2015 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.2.9
* Bug Fix:
+ minor incompatible change and bug fix: unboxed numeric
constants on x86oids are arranged in memory differently, and
the disassembler does not show them separately in DISASSEMBLE,
but does if DISASSEMBLE-CODE-COMPONENT is used. (lp#1421987)
+ DEFCLASS handles cyclic {super,meta}class relations better
(lp#1418883)
+ compiler no longer signals an error when compiling certain
function calls. (lp#1416704, lp#404441, lp#1417822, lp#1234919)
+ compiler doesn\'t stumble on a LOGIOR transform.
(lp#1389433)
+ more robust debugger and backtraces. (lp#1413850,
lp#1099500, lp#1412881, lp#945261, lp#1419205, lp#1409402)
+ files larger than 4GB can now be compiled.
+ x86 truncated results from 64-bit foreign functions to
32 bits.
+ file-position didn\'t work on large files on win32.
(lp#1271545)
+ callbacks from foreign threads can work without enabling
sb-safepoint.
+ sb-introspect:function-lambda-list works properly on
interpeted macros. (lp#1387404)
+ ADJUST-ARRAY properly handles non-adjustable arrays.
(lp#886418)
+ compiler no longer fails to dump a multidimensional
array constant involving a circular reference to itself
+ conditional and nested DX allocation no longer confuse
the compiler in STACK analysis. (lp#1044465)
+ sb-rotate-byte constant folding bug fixed. (lp#1423682)
* Optimization:
+ The compiler\'s treatment of type specifiers makes
it slightly faster and more memory-efficient. Portable code
should be indifferent to this change, however, users of
SB-INTROSPECT:FUNCTION-TYPE might notice that (MEMBER T NIL)
and (MEMBER NIL T) are both internally collapsed to the former,
so that the latter can never be obtained as part of an FTYPE.
+ a TYPEP call in which the second argument is not
a QUOTE form but nevertheless recognized as a compile-time
constant might open-code the test. One scenario for this involves
backquote, such as (TYPEP x `(my-type ,some-arg)). Code which relied upon
deferring until runtime should declare (NOTINLINE TYPEP).
[Due to the sematic constraints of DEFTYPE etc in in CLHS
3.2.2.3, code requiring delayed evaluation could be unportable though.]
* Enhancement:
+ unused variables at the top-level are now reported.
(lp#492200)
Mon Feb 2 13:00:00 2015 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- The release (source) tarball of sbcl-1.2.8 contained an error in
the build script, which in some circumstances (chiefly when /bin/sh is
bash) would lead to the sbcl built from that tarball to have a
lisp-implementation-version of \"-dirty\".
Sat Jan 31 13:00:00 2015 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.2.8
* Enhancement:
+better error and warning messages. (lp#1314767,
lp#736383)
+ backtrace for invalid argument count produces the
exact supplied arguments including the extra ones, on x86,
x86-64 and ARM.
+ STYLE-WARNING is signaled for DEFSTRUCT accessors which
are used before the structure is defined; similarly for the
predicate.
* Optimization
+ FORMAT NIL with only ~a and string arguments is transformed
into CONCATENATE.
+ POSITION and FIND when inlined into code that is compiled
with qualities of safety < 2 and speed > space will no longer
signal an error on circular lists, but will potentially loop
forever if given no :END constraint. As was always the case,
calls that are not inlined are safe regardless of lexical
policy.
* Bug Fix:
+ CLOS methods compiled with (OPTIMIZE (DEBUG 0))no longer
cause debugger failure when printing a backtrace
+ more resilience to deleted code. (lp#1308328, lp#1390544)
+ the CLHS example of MAKE-LOAD-FORM involving TREE-WITH-PARENT
did not work, and now it does.
Thu Jan 8 13:00:00 2015 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.2.7
* Optimization:
+ returning constant values refers to preboxed
constants more reliably. (lp#1398785)
* Enhancement:
+ STYLE-WARNING is produced if a compiler-macro is
defined for a function after at least one ordinary (not inlined)
call to that function was compiled, indicating a likely
compilation order problem. Likewise a warning ensues if a call
is compiled to a function that is subsequently proclaimed INLINE.
+ always lose() when something goes wrong while saving a core
(instead of just printing an error on stderr in some situations).
+ frames in the debugger are now restartable by default.
* Bug Fix:
+ restore error handling on Windows x86.
+ MAKE-SEQUENCE detects type errors in its :INITIAL-ELEMENT
at compile-time when possible. (lp#330299)
+ parsing of malformed type specifiers no longer results in a
memory-fault-error.
+ LOOP properly destructures nested lists in WITH.
+ MACROEXPANDing the redefinition of an alien structure type no
longer signals the wrong error.
+ PROGV doesn\'t get confused by forced DEBUG 3 (lp#1405456).
Tue Dec 2 13:00:00 2014 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.2.6
* enhancement:
+ SERVE-EVENTS uses the poll() system call in lieu
of select() if the OS has the former. Previously poll() was
used only if waiting on exactly one file descriptor.
+ efficiency of access to untagged structure slots
is improved on x86-64, and the order of slots in memory is
exactly as specified by defstruct, simplifying use of
structures as arguments to foreign calls.
* bug fix:
+ SB-DEBUG:ARG now works in all TRACE options which
evaluate forms. (lp#1357826)
+ GC memory corruption during internal memory handling.
+ duplicate effective-slot-definition objects as compared
by EQ on name could be present in CLASS-SLOTS of a class whose
metaclass was structure-class or condition-class. (lp#1049423)
+ HANDLER-BIND with empty bindings works again; regression in
1.2.5. (lp#1388707)
+ ATOMIC-INCF works on structure slots in interpreted code.
(lp#1381867)
+ MAKE-ARRAY properly handles character types like (eql
[#]\\a) and (member #\\a #\\c). (lp#1392068)
+ bug fix: READ sometimes accidentally preserved a whitespace
character after a token when it should not have. (lp#327790)

obsolete patch
Wed Nov 5 13:00:00 2014 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.2.5
* Enhancement
+ sb-bsd-sockets now has basic support for IPv6
+ An sb-unicode package has been added, containing
many functions related to handling Unicode text
+ The reader now normalizes symbols to Normalization
Form KC (NFKC). This behavior can be disabled with
SB-EXT:READTABLE-NORMALIZATION
+ enhancement: a style-warning is signaled if OPTIMIZE
declarations multiply specify a quality with differing values.
(lp#310267)
* Bug fix:
+ conservatively pointed to pages wipe out unused dwords
so that they cannot act as false roots in turn.
+ the walker\'s handling of lexical variable and
symbol-macro bindings is improved (lp#375326, lp#1368305)
+ HANDLER-{BIND,CASE} no longer drop into ldb when a
clause contains an undefined condition type; regression
in 1.1.19( lp#1378939)
+ in interpreted code, inequality predicates did not
type-check arguments that weren\'t examined, and a 1-argument use
of MIN or MAX accepted a complex number. (lp#1373702)
+ APROPOS and APROPOS-LIST handle inherited symbols correctly.
(lp#1364413, thanks to Zach Beane)
Sun Aug 31 14:00:00 2014 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.2.3
* Enhancement:
+ DOCUMENTATION works on instances of FUNCALLABLE-STANDARD-CLASS
+ ASSERT reports arguments of calls to lexical functions in
additional to global functions.
+ ASDF updated to 3.1.3
+ UIOP can be loaded without ASDF.
* Bug Fix:
+ Some methods on CHANGE-CLASS did not finalize the new class
before accessing its class-precedence list.
+ CHANGE-CLASS no longer fails on unbound slots in the source
object.
+ CHANGE-CLASS signals an appropriate error when the destination
class is a FORWARD-REFERENCED-CLASS.
+ CHANGE-CLASS no longer signals bogus TYPE-ERRORs for slots for
which initargs have been supplied.
+ saving cores on ARM was broken since the introduction of GENCGC.
(lp#1349795)
+ macroexpanding a backquoted expression involving \",.\" outside
of the compiler failed. (lp#1354623)

Mon Jul 28 14:00:00 2014 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.2.2
* incompatible change: the #\\` (\"backquote\") reader macro was
reimplemented to support robust pretty-printing. Reading a form
involving #\\` produces an invocation of the QUASIQUOTE ordinary
macro which may contain subforms that are not lists. Code that
unportably attempts operations on un-evaluated forms resulting
therefrom, e.g. (SUBST a b (read-from-string \"`(x (,y))\"))
might generate incorrect results and/or errors.
* Enhancement:
+ support for GNU/kFreeBSD x86.
+ ATOMIC-INCF and ATOMIC-DECF can operate on (CAR
x), (CDR x) and DEFGLOBAL variables of type fixnum.
+ enhancement: arithmetic constant reduction is now performed on
defconstant constants too. (lp#1337069).
* Bug Fix:
+ certain ftype proclamations containing &optional t &rest t no
longer cause subsequent definitions to signal bogus
style-warnings.
+ #\\Bell and #\\Bel now read to different characters. (lp#1319452).
+ CAS SYMBOL-VALUE on locally special variables didn\'t work.
(lp#1098355)
Mon Jun 30 14:00:00 2014 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.2.1
* Enhancement
+ GENCGC is enabled on ARM.
+ better error reporting for invalid calls to local
functions.
+ support for GNU/kFreeBSD distributions.
(lp#1079954, thanks to Christoph Egger)
+ experimental support for threads on NetBSD/x86-64.
(thanks to Robert Swindells)
+ support for DragonFly BSD. (lp#1292845, thanks to
Vasily Postnicov)
* Bug Fix:
+ TYPE-OF must not return AND/OR/NOT expressions. (lp#1317308)
+ accessing NIL arrays stopped producing errors. (lp#1311421)
+ DISASSEMBLE no longer prints unwanted stuff. (lp#1251861)
+ compiling SVREF on unknown types no longer produces scary
errors. (lp#1258716)

lp#700538, lp#613876, lp#695286, lp#798388)
+ silence compiler notes from the SEARCH transform.
(lp#1071310)
+ array type intersection handles T and unknown element types
correctly. (lp#1258716)
+ fix a corner case in array type unparsing that would result in
misleading translations from our internal type representation.
+ array-rank now sees through union and intersection types.
(lp#1310574)
+ when DECLARE expressions are in the wrong place, be careful not
to attempt to evaluate the subforms. (lp#573747; thanks to Roman
Marynchak)
+ misplaced and missing declarations in DEFTRANSFORM. (lp#1066451)
+ FBOUNDP returned NIL for a class of incorrect function names
instead of signaling an error. (lp#1095483)
+ fix a compile-time AVER in regalloc: lifetime analysis used to
(rarely) introduce duplicate conflict markers in a single
TN/block pair. (lp#1327008)

the name of the symbol in the error message.
* Bug fix
+ problems when redefining classes and doing TYPEP on classes
concurrently. (lp#1272742)
+ fixes to the x86-64 XCHG instruction:
- it was misencoded when used with RAX, R8-R15 registers.
(reported by Eric Marsden)
- it was misencoded when used to exchange EAX with itself.
- the disassembler wrongly printed XCHG RAX, R8 and the
corresponding 32- and 16-bit variations as NOP.

to wrap functions around. (lp#309086)
Fri Jan 31 13:00:00 2014 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.1.15
* New feature:
the iterative spilling/coloring register allocator developed
by Alexandra Barchunova during Google Summer of Code 2013 is
now merged in. By default, it only activates for functions that
optimize with (speed 3) and (> speed compilation-speed), but
setting sb-regalloc:
*register-allocation-method
* to :iterative
forces its execution. The previous behaviour can be obtained by
instead setting that variable to :greedy.
* Optimization:
+ make-array with known element-type and unknown dimensions is
much faster.
+ make-array with unknown element-type is faster as well.
(lp#1004501)
* Enhancement:
+ reduced conservativism on GENCGC platforms: conservative roots
must be valid-looking tagged pointers or point within a code
object, not merely point to within the allocated part of a
page, in order to pin a page.
+ support for \"Mac Roman\" external format.
+ encapsulation of named generic functions now happens without
altering the identity of the function bound to the name.
* Bug fix:
+ modular arithmetic optimizations do not stumble on dead branches
with bad constants. (reported by Douglas Katzman)
+ CLISP can be used again as a cross-compilation host.
(Thanks to Vasily Postnicov, lp#1261451)
+ run-program crashed with :directory nil. (lp#1265077)
Sat Nov 30 13:00:00 2013 toganmAATTopensuse.org

+ [N]BUTLAST perform a single pass over the list.
(lp#1245697)
+ EQUALP on structures with raw slots (double-float/complex)
no longer conses and is faster.
+ RESTART-CASE expands to more compact code.
Thanks to Jan Moringen. (lp#1249055)
* Enhancement:
+ Top-level defmethod without defgeneric no longer
causes undefined-function warnings in subsequent forms.
(lp#503095)
+ run-sbcl.sh is usefully handled by rlwrap. Thanks
to William Cushing. (lp#1249183)
+ new function SB-EXT:ASSERT-VERSION->= accepts a version
specification (multiple integer arguments) and signals a
continuable error if the current SBCL version is lower (older)
than the specification. (lp#674372)
+ better ARRAY-RANK result derivation. (lp#1252108)
* Bug fix:
+ EQUALP now compares correctly structures with raw slots larger
than a single word.
+ OPEN reports a more meaningful error when an existing file is
opened for output with :if-exists :new-version.Thanks to
Philip Munksgaard. (lp#455381)
+ DEFSTRUCTs with NIL as a slot name no longer cause strange
CLOS-related errors. (lp#633911)

+ ASDF is no longer required to load contribs at runtime.
(lp#1132254)

+ don\'t warn on a interpreted->compiled function redefinition
from the same location. (patch by Douglas Katzman, lp#1042405)
+ Create vectors of proper internal length when reading literal

- Update to version 1.1.12
* Enhancement:
+ Add sb-bsd-sockets:socket-shutdown, for calling
shutdown(3). lp#1207483
+ document extensible sequences. lp#994528
* Optimization:
+ EQUAL and EQUALP transforms are smarter. lp#1220084
+ CHAR-EQUAL is faster for constant and base-char arguments.
* Bug fix:
+ probe-file now can access symlinks to pipes and sockets in
/proc/pid/fd on Linux. (reported by Eric Schulte)
+ SBCL can now be built on Solaris x86-64.
+ Floating point exceptions do not persist on Solaris anymore.
+ (setf . a) is pprinted correctly
+ handle compiler-error in LOAD when it\'s not run from inside EVAL.
lp#1219601
+ SB-GMP:MPZ-POW no longer segfaults given a non-bignum base.
+ space allocation of result bignums in SB-GMP is more accurate.
lp#1206191
+ sb-safepoint can now reliably handle signal interruptions of
foreign code. lp#1133018
+ the compiler-macro for MAKE-INSTANCE when emitting \"fallback\"
constructors no longer fails to merge actual and default
initargs lp#1179858
+ the compiler-macro for MAKE-INSTANCE when emitting \"fallback\"
constructors handles non-KEYWORD initialization arguments more
correctly.
+ loading the SB-SIMPLE-STREAMS contributed module no longer
clobbers FILE-NAMESTRING. lp#884603
+ class definitions with CPLs inconsistent with their metaclasses
are less likely to destroy the object system\'s integrity.
lp#309076
+ restart clause parsing in RESTART-CASE is more in line
with the standard. lp#1203585
+ silence a note from RESTART-CASE under high-SPEED optimization
settings. lp#1023721
+ getting the order of arguments to
SB-MOP:SET-FUNCALLABLE-INSTANCE-FUNCTION wrong produces a
sensible error rather than a failed AVER.
+ Parsing of &optional/&key/&rest arguments now never overwrites
arguments during copying on x86 and x86-64; it may still happen
on other platforms when there are more fixed arguments than
stack slots.
Wed Aug 28 14:00:00 2013 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.1.11
* Enhancement:
+ support building the manual under texinfo version 5 lp#1189146
* Bug fix:
+ undefined function errors are now properly reported on
PPC and MIPS. (regression since 1.1.9)
+ (funcall (function X junk)) didn\'t causes an error
when X had a compiler macro.
+ signal a warning when defining a setf-function when a
setf-expander is already present.
+ improved threading on PPC.
+ Streams were flushed even when there was one byte
still left in the buffer. (lp#910213)
+ OPEN handles correctly when :if-exists and
:if-does-not-exist are either NIL or :ERROR.
Mon Jul 29 14:00:00 2013 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.1.10
* Enhancement:
+ ASDF has been updated to 3.0.2.
* Optimization:
+ stack frames are packed more efficiently on
x86oids, which ought to reduce the frequency of Methuselahn
conservative references (it certainly helps with gc.impure.lisp
/ BUG-936304 on x86).
+ on x86 and x86-64, integer negation forms like
(-
* x) are now recognized in modular arithmetic contexts, and
compile to native negate, rather than going through bignums only
to keep the low bits.
* Bug fix
+ Compiling potential modularic arithmetic forms does
not cause type errors when some integer types lack lower or upper
bounds. (lp#1199127)
+ Non-trivial modular arithmetic forms are always cut to
the right bitwidth before being used in a non-modular context.
(lp#1199428)
+ Multiple catch/unwind blocks in a single function are now
allocated in the right stack order on win32. (lp#1072739)
Thu Jul 4 14:00:00 2013 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.1.9
* New feature:
+ the contrib SB-GMP links with libgmp at runtime to speed up
arithmetic on bignums and ratios. (contributed by Stephan
Frank)
* Enhancement:
+ disassemble now annotates some previously
missing static functions, like LENGTH.
+ SB-EXT:PRINT-SYMBOL-WITH-PREFIX can be used within ~// to
print a symbol with a package prefix.
+ The debugger and backtracing are more robust against buggy
PRINT-OBJECT methods.
* Optimization:
+ calls to static functions on x86-64 use less instructions.
+ compute encode-universal-time at compile time when possible.
+ when referencing internal functions as #\'x, don\'t go through
an indirect fdefn structure.
+ SLEEP doesn\'t cons on non-immediate floats and on ratios.
+ (mod fixnum) type-checks are performed using one unsigned
comparison, instead of two.
+ enable more modular arithmetic transforms in the presence of
conditionals.
+ bitwise OR forms can now trigger modular arithmetic as well,
when the result is known to be negative.
+ recognize more cases of useless LOGAND/LOGIOR with constants.
+ comparisons between rationals and constant floats or between
integers and constant ratios are now converted to rationals/integers
at compile time.
+ Smaller and faster DOUBLE-FLOAT-LOW-BITS on x86-64.
* Bug Fix:
+ problems with NCONC type derivation (reported by Jerry James).
+ EXPT type derivation no longer constructs bogus floating-point
types. (reported by Vsevolod Dyomkin)
+ sb-bsd-sockets has correct declaration of the canonname field of
addrinfo. (lp#1187041, patch by Jerry James)
+ uninitialized type-error conditions can now be printed.
(lp#1184586)
+ tests for sb-bsd-sockets no longer use a predefined port for
listening, allowing several tests to run in parallel.
+ during disassembly to
*COMPILER-TRACE-OUTPUT
* instruction
prefixes as used on x86 and x86-64 no longer sometimes print incorrectly.
(lp#1085729)
+ Specialised SIMD-PACK types can be negated.
+ Modular arithmetic is more robust. (incidentally fixes another bug
reported by Eric Marsden)
+ FP return values from foreign calls are always rounded to single
or double float precision on x87.
+ Known-safe vector access on x86oids should not fail spuriously
when the index is of the form (+ x constant-positive-integer).
+ backtrace printer no longer tries to create very large lists when
the arg-count register is clobberred by other code. (lp#1192929)
+ x86 should never signal an FP exception while boxing an FP value,
a situation that lands us into ldb.
Wed Jun 5 14:00:00 2013 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.1.8
* Notice:
+ The implementation of MAP-ALLOCATED-OBJECTS (the heart of
ROOM, plus a few SB-INTROSPECT functions) has been completely
rewritten; it may now exhibit different bugs than before.
* New feature:
+ minimal runtime/compiler intrastructure support
for SSE SIMD values, as SB-EXT:SIMD-PACK. Enabled on x86-64
via the build-time
+ sb-simd-pack. This should enable intrinsics extensions
as libraries, without patching SBCL itself.
* Enhancement:
+ RUN-PROGRAM supports a :DIRECTORY argument to set
the working directory of the spawned process.
(lp#791800) (patch by Matthias Benkard)
+ boxed vectors (vectors of T or of FIXNUM) can now
be stack-allocated on PPC.
+ \"fixed objects\" can now be stack-allocated on PPC.
+ WITH-PINNED-OBJECTS no longer conses on PPC/GENCGC.
+ (sb-introspect:find-definition-sources-by-name x :vop) now
also returns VOPs which do not translate any functions, and
finds defoptimizer types ir2convert and stack-allocate-result.
+ better type derivation for APPEND, NCONC, LIST. (lp#538957)
+ MAP-ALLOCATED-OBJECTS (the heart of ROOM) now walks the heap
in a manner similar to the GC rather than its previous ad-hoc
scheme, and is therefore no less and possibly more accurate.
+ fixes and enhancements related to Unicode:
- the character database information has been updated to
Unicode 6.2;
- support for canonical and compatibility decomposition of
characters has been added, along with support for primary
composition;
- support for Unicode normalization forms of strings (NFC,
NFKC, NFD and NFKD) has been included;
- querying the character database for code points not defined
by Unicode gives less wrong answers (lp#1178038, reported by
Ken Harris)
+ print intermediate evaluation results for some ASSERTed
expressions. (lp#789497) (patch by Alexandra Barchunova)
+ x86-64 disassemblies are annotated with unboxed constant
values when there are references to (RIP-relative) unboxed
constants.
* Bug fix:
+ type derivation for LOG{AND,IOR,XOR} scales linearly instead
of quadratically with the size of the input in the worst case.
(lp#1096444)
+ handle errors when initializing
*default-pathname-defaults
*,
sb-ext:
*runtime-pathname
*, sb-ext:
*posix-argv
* on startup, like
character decoding errors, or directories being deleted.
+ Loading a core with a discontiguous dynamic space now correctly
computes the amount of dynamic space used.
+ disassembler missing \",8\" on SHLD
+ backtracing through INTERNAL-ERROR signal handlers on systems
that provide an \"invalid\" stack frame link for the signal handler
itself now use the saved-fp-and-pc mechanism to pick up from
the stack frame in the interrupt (signal) context. This is
known to affect threaded FreeBSD/x86-64.
+ some LOOP statements couldn\'t be compiled. (lp#1178989)
+ sb-sequence:dosequence works on literal vectors.
+ errors in generic arithmetic show the assembly routine\'s caller
on x86 and x86-64. (lp#800343)
+ Compile-time type errors should never result in COMPILE-FILE
failure. (lp#943953)
+ Known bad local calls do not cause strange failures when emitting
or dumping code. (lp#504121)
+ Multiply-inlined structure constructor don\'t cause IR2-time
codegen errors: type checks are inserted as necessary.
(lp#1177703)
+ Unsigned modular arithmetic is correctly converted into signed
modular arithemtic (mostly to exploit fixnum-width VOPs).
(lp#1026634)
+ a combination of inlined local function with &optional and
recursion no longer causes undescriptive compiler errors.
(lp#1180992)
+ sub-word BOOLEAN alien types now disregard higher order bits
when testing for non-zero-ness.
+ (CONCATENATE \'null ...) no longer fails for generic sequences.
(lp#1162301)
+ Type mismatch for the value of conditional expressions are
correctly reported when detected at compile-time, instead of
complaining about a constant NIL (similar for non-EQ-comparable
catch tags).
+ Referring to INLINE global functions as values should not result
in a compilation failure. (lp#1035721)
* Optimization:
+ faster ISQRT on fixnums and small bignums
+ faster and smaller INTEGER-LENGTH on fixnums on x86-64.
+ On x86-64, the number of multi-byte NOP instructions used
for code alignment is now always minimal.
+ On 64-bit targets, the compiler generates much faster code
for type checks for types known at compile time that are
smaller than (SIGNED-BYTE 64) or (UNSIGNED-BYTE 64) and larger
than FIXNUM, and their COMPLEX variants.
+ On x86 targets, more uses of ALIEN-FUNCALL during cross
compilation now inline the INVOKE-WITH-SAVED-FP-AND-PC dance.
+ ROOM no longer conses so egregiously on non-x86oid systems.
+ associative bitwise operations reassociate patterns like
(f (f x k1) k2) to expose (f x (f k1 k2)). Same for + and
* of
rational values.
+ quasiquote expressions now perform more constant folding,
instead of consing equal lists at runtime. (lp#1026439)
+ local call analysis of inlined higher-order function should
converge more quickly, resulting in better code for complex
functions.
+ On x86-64, medium (word-sized but wider than 32 bits) integer
constants are handled more cleverly, especially when they can
be represented as sign-extended (signed-byte 32). (Based on a
patch by Douglas Katzman)
+ IF/IF conversion should reliably result in sane code when
(some of) the results of the inner IF are always false or
always true.
+ On x86oids, variable right shifts of machine words are
compiled into straight SAR/SHR, instead of going through the
generic VOP. (lp#1066204)

Tue Apr 30 14:00:00 2013 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.1.7
* Enhacements:
+ TRACE :PRINT-ALL handles multiple-valued forms. (#457053)
* Bug Fix:
+ allocation slot option works for condition slots (#1049404)
redefining conditions does not lead to multiple evaluations of
hairy slot initfunctions anymore (#1164969)
+ CLASS-DIRECT-DEFAULT-INITARGS now works for condition classes
(#1164970)
+ function constants now work as initforms and default initarg values
of conditions (#539517)
svref/(setf svref) on symbol macros don\'t crash the compiler
anymore. (Minimal test case provided by James M. Lawrence on
sbcl-devel)
+ no more bogus ## references when pretty printing backquoted forms
with non-trivial structure sharing. (#1161218)
+ Don\'t signal an error on (setf (documentation nil \'function) \"doc\").
Signal a style-warning instead when trying to set documentation
of NIL for all other documentation types.)
+ modular arithmetic involving large constants and conditionals
should no longer result in spurious dead code elimination.
+ our mach exception handler can seemingly called very early in
the program execution process on OS X 10.8.0. Try and handle
that case robustly, without potentially leaking mach ports
too much.
* Optimization:
+ LOGBITP and LOGTEST optimizations from x86 portedto x86_64.

- Update to version 1.1.6
* Enhancements:
+ the continuable error when defknown-ing over extant fndb
entries can be ignored by passing :overwrite-fndb-silently
t as a keyword argument to sb-c:defknown (after attributes).
Useful to allow defknown to be re-loaded. Use with
:allow-other-keys t for backward compatibility.
* Optimization:
+ compiler is much faster in compiling SVREF and
(SETF SVREF) forms.
* Bug fix:
+ Prevent a make-array transform from modifying source
forms causing problems for inlined code. Thanks to Bart Botta.
(regression since 1.0.42.11-bis)
+ clear-output calls the correct gray stream routine,
sb-gray:stream-clear-output. (lp#1153257)
+ an error is signalled for an invalid format modifier:
~<~AATT>. (lp#1153148)
+ Better error messages for package operations
(lp#1154776)
+ delete-package on a nonexistent package should signal
a cerror. (regression since 1.0.37.44).
+ bug fix: accessing &MORE (stack allocated &REST) arguments
checks bounds. (lp#1154946, lp#1072112)
+ bug fix: compiling make-array no longer signals an error when
the element-type is an uknown type, a warning is issued instead.
Thanks to James Kalenius (lp#1156095)
+ SEARCH on generic (non-VECTOR non-LIST) sequence types
no longer produces wrong results for some inputs.
(Thanks to Jan Moringen.) (lp#1153312)

- Update to version 1.1.5
* minor incompatible change: SB-SPROF:WITH-PROFILING no longer
loops by default.
* New Features:
+ package local nicknames. See manual for details.
+ SB-EXT:MAP-DIRECTORY provides a powerful interface
for directory traversal: it is the backend used by SBCL for
CL:DIRECTORY.
* Enhancements:
+ easier to use restarts for resolving name-conflicts resulting
from IMPORT, EXPORT, or USE-PACKAGE.
+ variant DEFPACKAGE forms now signal a full error with restarts
provided for resolving the situation. (lp#891351)
+ by setting SB-EXT:
*ON-PACKAGE-VARIANCE
* appropriately variant
DEFPACKAGE forms can now signal a full error with restarts
provided for resolving the situation. (lp#891351)
+ make-random-state now uses CryptGenRandom as a seed on Windows.
(Thanks to Anton Kovalenko.) (lp#1102748)
+ backtrace improvements
*
* secondary CLOS dispatch functions have better debug names
(lp#503081)
*
* easier to read method names in backtraces. See
SB-DEBUG:
*METHOD-FRAME-STYLE
*.
*
* SB-DEBUG:PRINT-BACKTRACE and SB-DEBUG:LIST-BACKTRACE are
available as forwards-compatible replacements for
SB-DEBUG:BACKTRACE and SB-DEBUG:BACKTRACE-AS-LIST.
*
* SB-DEBUG:
*SHOW-ENTRY-POINT-DETAILS
*
* has been deprecated, as
the same information is available in less intrusive form as
frame annotations.
+ SB-POSIX now provides MAP-ANON.
+ test-suite results are colorized, failures in red,
unexpected success in green. Works on Windows and on terminals with
ANSI escape code support. Can be disabled with --no-color.
* Optimizations:
+ SB-CONCURRENCY:QUEUE implementation is more efficient.
(thanks to James M. Lawrence)
* Bug Fixes:
+ no more unused variable style warnings from RESTART-CASE
macroexpansion (lp#1113859)
+ no more unused variable style warnings when loading
sb-bsd-sockets.asd (lp#1114681)
+ deleting a package removes it from implementation-package lists of
other packages.
+ SB-SPROF:WITH-PROFILING is now usable in the Slime REPL on Darwin.
This does not fix the occasional \"interrupt already pending\"
issue, though.
+ (setf (documentation \'x \'function)) and (setf (documentation #\'x t))
set documentation in different places. (regression since 1.0.43.63)
+ build on newer glibc. (lp#1095036)
- Removed sbcl-glibc217.patch as it is fixed upstream
Fri Feb 1 13:00:00 2013 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to 1.1.4 version
* Optimization
+ LOOP expressions using \"of-type character\" have
slightly more efficient expansions.
* Bug Fixes :
+ very long (or infinite) constant lists in DOLIST do
not result in very long compile times or heap exhaustion
anymore. (lp#1095488)

+ adjust-array ignored :initial-element for simple-vectors.
(lp#1096359)
+ optimizations to MAKE-INSTANCE with literal list
initargs no longer cause infinite loops (on circular data) or
violate eqlity constraints. (lp#1099708)
+ FIRST was not being open coded. (regression from 1.1.0)
- renamed and sbcl-0.9.5-personality.patch to
sbcl-1.1.4-personality.patch and reworked it.
Tue Jan 8 13:00:00 2013 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 1.1.3
* Enhancements:
+ warnings about bad locale settings, LANG, LC_CTYPE,
etc. (#727625)
+ support for C-c to interrupt the foreground thread on
Windows. (Thanks to Anton Kovalenko.)
+ STDCALL alien callbacks. (Thanks to Anton Kovalenko.)
+ Safepoint builds on POSIX platforms can now optionally be
built without pseudo-atomic sequences and their run-time
overhead.
+ Threads created outside of Lisp can enter Lisp through alien
callbacks and appear as Lisp threads for the duration of that
function invocation. On safepoint builds only.
+ Miscellaneous improvements to namestrings and underlying
calls to OS functions for file system access on
Windows. (Thanks to Anton Kovalenko.)
+ The MSI installer support for Windows now uses Windows
Installer XML at least version 3.5 and includes various
usability improvements. (Thanks to Dmitry Kalyanov and Anton
Kovalenko.)
+ The sb-bsd-sockets contrib now supports non-blocking-mode on
Windows. (Thanks to Anton Kovalenko.)
+ The Windows backend now supports the x86-64 platform. (Thanks
to Anton Kovalenko.)
* Bug fixes:
+ fasls are now once again directly executable (on platforms
supporting shebang lines, with a suitably-installed sbcl).
+ make.sh --help no longer runs clean.sh. (#937001)
+ Fix CAS access to slots of direct instances of structure
classes in the presence of subclasses sharing the same
conc-name.
+ Logical pathname namestrings on Windows have been changed to
be lower-case, to minimize differences between POSIX and
Windows.
Wed Dec 5 13:00:00 2012 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to 1.1.2 version
* Enhancements:
+ frlocks have been added to SB-CONCURRENCY contrib
module.
+ New feature sb-dynamic-core allows the runtime to
be rebuilt or relocated without requiring changes to the core
file on all linkage table platforms. Required on Windows.
(Thanks to Anton Kovalenko.)
+ Console I/O streams use UCS-2. (Thanks to Anton Kovalenko.)
+ Support for the experimental safepoint-based stop-the-world
protocol on the PowerPC platform.
* Windows related bug fixes:
- Use sbcl in buildrequires instead of clisp since the package is
now available in Factory as well
* Added sbclrc.sample and README.openSUSE which explains the usage
of the sample init file usage with sbcl
* Patched install.sh to install the above
(sbcl-1.1.2-install.patch)
* use the customize-target-features.lisp to enable/disable
features
* disable test-frfrlock sb-concurrency by allowing it to fail on
linux see https://bugs.launchpad.net/sbcl/+bug/1087955
(sbcl-disable-frlock-test.patch)

- Fix build with glibc 2.17 (add patch sbcl-glibc217.patch)
Sat Nov 3 13:00:00 2012 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to 1.1.1 version
* Enhancements and optimizations:
+ WITH-COMPILATION-UNIT no longer grabs the world-lock.
(COMPILE and COMPILE-FILE still do.)
+ The SPARC backend now supports the precise generational
(GENCGC) garbage collection. Enabled by default on
Solaris/SPARC and Linux/SPARC. Thanks to Raymond Toy (via
CMUCL).
+ add experimental support for the SB-THREAD feature and the
timer facility on Windows. Thanks to Dmitry Kalyanov and Anton
Kovalenko. Threads are enabled by default, and this version of
SBCL is considered to be the last and final release to
officially support building with threads disabled.
+ The compiler no longer rotates loops in some cases where this
transformation actually lead to worse code being generated.
* Bug Fixes:
+ SB-CLTL2:MACROEXPAND-ALL correctly handles shadowing of
symbol-macros by lexical bindings.
+ stack allocation was prevented by high DEBUG declaration in
several cases.
+ SB-EXT:GC-LOGFILE signaled an error when no logfile was set.
(thanks to SANO Masatoshi)
+ PARSE-NATIVE-NAMESTRING performed non-native parsing when
:JUNK-ALLOWED was true.
+ type derivation inferred overly conservative types for unions
of array types. (#1050768)

- Update to 1.1.0
* Enhancements:
+ New variable, sb-ext:
*disassemble-annotate
* for controlling source
annotation of DISASSEMBLE output. Defaults to T.
+ TIMEOUT arguments added to WITH-MUTEX and WITH-RECURSIVE-LOCK, and
WAIT-P argument added to WITH-RECURSIVE-LOCK.
+ SB-EXT:ATOMIC-PUSH and SB-EXT:ATOMIC-POP allow atomic operations on
list heads.
+ Optional features (not enabled by default) allow the use of signals
for inter-thread synchronization to be reduced on certain supported
platforms (currently Linux, Solaris, and FreeBSD on x86 and x86-64).
Set (and :sb-thread :sb-safepoint :sb-thruption :sb-wtimer) to test
these experimental features. Known remaining bugs include minor
thread safety issues, less timely freeing of memory by GC, and certain
(not yet optimally low) runtime overhead. Thanks to Anton Kovalenko.
* optimization:
+ CL:SORT and CL:STABLE-SORT of lists are faster and use fewer
comparisons, particularly on almost-sorted inputs.
* Bug fixes
+ Reading floats with large exponents no longer takes too much time
before reporting that the exponent is too large.
+ SB-BSD-SOCKETS:SOCKET-RECEIVE with a UDP socket now works correctly
when the received datagram is larger than the provided buffer.
(#1023438, thanks to Robert Uhl)
+ SB-EXT:GET-CAS-EXPANSION returned a bogus read-form when given a
SYMBOL-VALUE form with a constant symbol argument.
+ SB-EXT:GET-CAS-EXPANSION signaled an error when a macro expanding
into a DEFCAS defined place was used as the place.
+ FIND and POSITION signaled a type-error when non-bits where looked
for from bit-vectors.
+ a race condition around thread creation could (in SBCL 1.0.57) lead
to internal errors or crashes (#1058799).
* documentation:
+ a section on random number generation has been added to the
manual. (#656839)
- rebased sbcl-1.0.54-optflags.patch
Tue Aug 7 14:00:00 2012 toganmAATTopensuse.org
- Update to 1.0.58
* enhancement: implicit generic function warnings now specify the
package in which the new generic function is being created.
* enhancement: SB-EXT:ATOMIC-UPDATE makes it easy to perform
non-destructive updates of CAS-able places (similar to
Clojure\'s swap!).
* enhancement: run-program no longer decodes and re-encodes
environment when :environment argument is not
provided. (#985904)
* enhancement: errors during compiler-macro expansion no longer
cause runtime errors, only a compile-time warning, otherwise
behaving as if the compiler macro had declined to expand.
* optimization: On x86-64, code alignment of block headers is done
with multi-byte NOPs now instead of repetitions of the
single-byte NOP.
* optimization: MAP-INTO is substantially faster when the target
sequence is of unknown type; mapping into lists is no longer
O(N^2). (thanks to James M. Lawrence)
* optimization: the compiler no longer heap-conses to check exits
in cases where the exit function is dynamic extent, or when it
can prove the exit function cannot escape.
* optimization: SB-SEQUENCE:DOSEQUENCE is faster on vectors of
unknown element type, and vectors that aren\'t SIMPLE-ARRAYs.
* optimization: CL:SORT and CL:STABLE-SORT are more efficient in
execution speed (around 1/3 the time in some cases), and a
little better in terms of comparison calls. (Thanks to Takeru
Ohta)
* bug fix: On SPARC, a limitation on the number of code constants
emittable by the compiler has been lifted, allowing certain
long functions to compiled and assembled which had previously
been unsupported; fixes cl-bench on this ISA (#1008996).
* bug fix: potential for infinite recursion during compilation of
CLOS slot typechecks when dependency graph had
loops. (#1001799)
* bug fix: error forms reported with some program-errors were not
escaped properly.
* bug fix: functions from EVAL are now on more equal footing with
functions from COMPILE. (#1000783, #851170, #922408)
* bug fix: ENSURE-GENERIC-METHOD-COMBINATION accepts method
combination objects as its :METHOD-COMBINATION argument, not
just lists designating method combinations. (#936513)
* bug fix: run-program no longer unconditionally uses /tmp/ for
temporary files. (#968837).
* bug fix: restore build on solaris/sparc. (#1008506) bug fix: an
* issue with LDB in the PowerPC backend has been resolved; this
* fixes an issue found with cl-postgres (thanks to Tomas
* Hlavaty).
* bug fix: compiler-macro lambda-lists specifying non-keyword
symbols as keyword arguments no longer accidentally match
unevaluated symbols against them.
* bug fix: FORMAT used to loop infinitely in some cases when a
COLINC parameter was zero, now it signals an error. (#905817,
fixed since 1.0.56.19)
* bug fix: run-program with :pty t no longer makes the pty as the
process\'s controling terminal.

- Update to 1.0.57 changes in sbcl-1.0.57 relative to sbcl-1.0.56:
* RANDOM enhancements and bug fixes:
*
* bug fix: the range and distribution of random integers could be
catastrophically wrong when the compiler derived the type of its
argument as a disjoint set of small integers.
*
* bug fix: the distribution of random integers is now completely
uniform even when the specified limit is not a power of two.
(Previously some values could be about 0.1 % more probable than
others in the worst case.)
*
* RANDOM on large integer arguments is generally faster and conses
less than before; this is visible for fixnums above a length of
about 24 bits, but extremely so for bignums: the old implementation
used time and space quadratical in the size of the argument there,
the new one is linear.
* enhancement: redesigned protocol for quitting SBCL. SB-EXT:EXIT is the new
main entry point, SB-EXT:QUIT is deprecated.
* enhancement: additions to the SB-THREAD API: RETURN-FROM-THREAD,
ABORT-THREAD, MAIN-THREAD-P, and MAIN-THREAD.
* enhancement: FASL loading no longer grabs the world-lock.
* enhancement: GENCGC reclaims space more aggressively when objects being
allocated are a large fraction of the total available heap space.
(lp#936304)
* enhancement: backtraces show the correct number of arguments for frames
called with too many arguments.
* enhancement: support for abort(3), exit(3), and _exit(2) has been added to
SB-POSIX.
* enhancement: ASDF has been updated 2.21.
* optimization: fewer uses of full calls to signed modular functions.
(lp#903821)
* optimization: typechecking alien values is typically 5 x faster.
* optimization: FDEFINITION, SYMBOL-FUNCTION, MACRO-FUNCTION, and FBOUNDP
are 20% faster.
* bug fix: file compilation performance issues when dumping subtypes
of CHARACTER (lp#994487)
* bug fix: fixed disassembly of some SSE instructions on x86-64.
* bug fix: SB-SIMPLE-STREAMS signals an error for bogus :CLASS arguments in
OPEN. (lp#969352, thanks to Kambiz Darabi)
* bug fix: CASE normal-clauses do not allow T and OTHERWISE as keys.
(lp#959687)
* bug fix: (SETF (FIND-CLASS X) NIL) removed proper name of the underlying
classoid even if X was not the proper name of the class. (lp#941102)
* bug fix: declaration leakage between lexical environments due to careless
use of NCONC in MAKE-LEXENV. (lp#924276)
* bug fix: ENSURE-DIRECTORIES-EXIST now works when
* default-pathname-defaults
* contains NAME or TYPE components.
* bug fix: PPRINT couldn\'t print improper lists with CARs being some symbols
from CL package, e.g. (loop . 10).
* bug fix: run-program with existent or non-existent files for :output or
:input when :if-output-exists or :if-input-does-not-exist are NIL properly
returns NIL instead of signalling an obscure error.
* bug fix: fix miscompilation of some logand forms with large constant
arguments. (lp#974406)
* bug fix: account for funcallable-instance objects properly in ROOM.
* bug fix: incorrect octets reported for c-string decoding errors.
(lp#985505)
* bug fix: miscompilation of LDB on the PowerPC platform. (thanks to Bruce
O\'Neel)
* bug fix: better input error reporting for COMPILE-FILE. (lp#493380)
* bug fix: default size of non-nursery generations has been shrunk on GENCGC,
allowing faster release of memory back to the OS. (lp#991293)
* bug fix: WITH-DEADLINE (:SECONDS NIL :OVERRIDE T) now drops any
existing deadline for the dynamic scope of its body.
* bug fix: compiler-internal interval arithmetic needed to be more
conservative about open intervals when operated on by monotonic but not
strictly-monotonic functions. (lp#975528)
* bug fix: copy-tree caused stack exhaustion on long linear lists, and now
it\'s also slightly faster. (lp#998926)
* bug fix: better error messages for malformed declarations.
(lp#1000239)
* bug fix: define-condition didn\'t return the name of the defined condition.
* documentation:
*
* improved docstrings: REPLACE (lp#965592)

- Update to 1.0.56:
* bug fix: fix copy-structure. When copying from stack to heap,
garbage could end up in the heap making GC unhappy. (Thanks to
James Knight, #911027)
* enhancements
SBCL can now be built using Clang.
ASDF has been updated 2.20.
* bug fix: compiler errors when weakening hairy integer types.
(#913232)
* bug fix: don\'t complain about a too-hairy lexical environment
for inlining when the function has never been requested for
inlining. (#963530)
- use optflags for the c code
- enable compression
- use suse in versioning as suggested by the upstream
