+
+  Features
+
+  - Minor optimizations in library:
+    - many instances of internal (format nil ...) calls replaced with cheaper
+      string catenation operations.
+    - consing reduced in the compiled implementation of string quasiliterals.
+    - search, rsearch and update functions switched to seq_info.
+
+  Bugs
+
+  - compiler: showstopper bug fixed: operators in the each family, and the
+    dohash operator were missing the implicit anonymous block.
+  - vm: fixed interal bug: when diagnosing the situation that an anonymous
+    block is not visible, format was called with excess arguments, hijacking
+    the situation with a different exception.
+  - lib: fixed broken rsearch function, and a minor flaw in the diagnostic
+    generated by search and rsearch for a wrongly typed key object.
+  - signals: fixed mismanagement of the sigaltstack memory.
+  - streams: improved dubious integer format string detector logic that is
+    invoked at global initialization time.
