* New module DBUS interfaces to the D-Bus message bus system.
See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/dbus.html> for details.
* New function EXT:PROBE-PATHNAME can figure out whether the existing
pathname refers to a file or a directory.
See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/files.html#probe-path> for details.
* New function EXT:CANONICALIZE lets you easily canonicalize a value
before processing it.
See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/macros3.html#canonicalize> for details.
* New user variable CUSTOM:*REOPEN-OPEN-FILE* controls CLISP behavior
when opening an already open file.
See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/open.html#reopen> for details.
* New SETFable function OS:FILE-SIZE extends FILE-LENGTH to pathname
designators and lets you change file size.
See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/syscalls.html#file-size> for details.
New function OS:USER-SHELLS returns the list of legal user shells.
See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/syscalls.html#user-shells> for details.
New SETFable functions OS:HOSTID and OS:DOMAINNAME.
See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/syscalls.html#hostid> for details.
* Module readline has been upgraded to readline 5.2
(older versions 5.0 and 5.1 are, of course, still supported).
See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/readline-mod.html> for details.
* LOAD now uses DIRECTORY only for wild *LOAD-PATHS* components, thus
speeding up the most common cases and preventing the denial-of-service
attack whereas CLISP would not start if a file with a name
incompatible with *PATHNAME-ENCODING* is present in USER-HOMEDIR-PATHNAME.
* ROOM now prints some GC statistics and returns the same values as GC.
See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/environment-enq.html#room> for details.
* New user variable CUSTOM:*HTTP-LOG-STREAM* controls EXT:OPEN-HTTP logging.
See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/macros3.html#http-log-stream> for details.
* Bug fixes:
+ Comparison of floats and rationals never underflows. [ 2014262 ]
+ When failing to convert a huge LONG-FLOAT to a RATIONAL, signal an
ARITHMETIC-ERROR instead of blowing the stack. [ 2015118 ]
+ Restored TYPECODES g++ compilation [ 2015118 ], which allowed fixing
a few GC-safety bugs.
+ Fixed a segfault when signaling some UNBOUND-VARIABLE errors in some
interpreted code on MacOS X (introduced in 2.46). [ 2020784 ]
Thanks to Vladimir Tzankov <vtzankov@gmail.com>.
+ Fixed input after switching a :DOS stream to binary. [ 2022362 ]
+ Support circular objects in EQUAL and EQUALP hash-tables. [ 2029069 ]
+ Avoid C namespace pollution. [ 2146126 ]
+ Fix timeout precision in NEW-CLX. [ 2188102 ]
* ANSI compliance:
+ The sets of declaration and type names are disjoint.
+ FLET, LABELS and MACROLET respect declarations.
