The patch-ad modification was independently created by myself before I
knew about this PR. The mono build has been broken for several months,
but with this patch along with modifications for the linker, mono now
builds on an x86_64 DragonFly machine.
Without it, programs using .init sections will just segfault. The
workaround comes from http://www.openssl.org/~appro/values.c
Tested on 5.10, not needed on 5.11.
newLISP is a Lisp-like, general-purpose scripting language. It is
especially well-suited for applications in AI, web search, natural
language processing, and machine learning. Because of its small
resource requirements, newLISP is also excellent for embedded
systems applications. Most of the functions you will ever need are
already built in. This includes networking functions, support for
distributed and parallel processing, and Bayesian statistics.
The development of Algol played an important role in establishing
computer science as an academic discipline. The Algol 68 Genie
project preserves Algol 68 out of educational as well as
scientific-historical interest, by making available Algol 68 Genie;
a recent, well-featured implementation written from scratch. Algol
68 Genie is a practically full implementation of the language
defined by the Revised Report. The implementation is a hybrid
compiler-interpreter; units with considerable interpreter-overhead
can optionally be compiled.
Thanks for your work, Olaf Seibert.
assembler to adapt them to the distance. m68k gas appears not to do
that for fpu branch insns, resulting in an out-of-range FPU assembler
branch instruction error in "ext/re/re_exec.c".
As a workaround, building with "-Os" instead of "-O2" reduces the size
of the object file enough to allow short branches.
See PR toolchain/45439.
This changeset addresses several things:
1) Adds support for x86-Solaris (Namely OpenIndiana)
2) Properly implements run-time symbolic traceback support
3) Arranges makefile so patches can be handled in a standard fashion
4) Properly implements MAKE_JOBS which reduces build times by 66%+ on
the quad-core test machine (30 minutes down to < 10 minutes)
the linkage of the package and gives me a non-broken liblua.so on
current. The one I had around from sometime last year had broken
compatibility references in it.
awkwardly, leading to Python 2.6 failing to build.
Python 2.7 builds ok, because it has been taught to deal with this.
This patch retro-fits the 2.7 code into 2.6, and allows 2.6 to build on
Ubuntu 11.04.

It is not a leaf package, but the changes affect Mac OS X only.
Test builds on 10.5/i386, 10.6/i386 (thanks tron@), 10.7/i386 and
10.7/x86_64 (thanks ryoon@).

Brief summary of Gauche 0.9.2:
[New Features]
* Case mapping and character properties are fully supported,
compatible to R6RS and R7RS draft (both based on Unicode
standard). Character-wise case mapping (char-upcase etc.) and
property queries (char-alphabetic?, char-general-category,
etc.) are built-in. Context-aware string case mapping
(string-upcase etc.) is provided in the new text.unicode
module. (Note: srfi-13's string-upcase etc. are unchanged;
they are defined to use simple case mappings.) The text.unicode
module also provides conversion between utf-8/utf-16 and
Unicode codepoints.
* Windows binary distribution is now in MS installer (*.msi)
format, created with WiX. It's safer than the previous *.exe
format created by NSIS, which had a bug that smashes PATH
settings when it is too long.
* A convenient wrapper for atomic execution is added in
gauche.threads. See this intro post.
* Benchmarking utilities resembles to Perl's Benchmark module is
now available in gauche.time. See this post for an
introduction.
* with-lock-file: A long-awaited feature to use lock files
conveniently. It is in file.util module.
* Added full support of srfi-60, integer bitwise operations.
* gauche.cgen: Some API that Gauche uses to generate C code
become public. See the manual for the details.
[Incompatibile Changes]
* control.thread-pool: add-job! now takes timeout argument. If it
is omitted and the job queue is full, add-job! blocks. It is a
change from 0.9.1, in which add-job! returns immediately in
such case. To get the same behavior, pass 0 explicitly to the
timeout argument. The argument order of wait-all is also
changed to take timeout optional argument first. In 0.9.1 it
never timeouts.
* If --enable-multibyte flag is given to ./configure without
explicit encoding, we now assume utf-8. It used to be
euc-jp. This is for the consistency. We don't think this change
affects many, for the document has always been told to give
explicit encoding name for this option.
* The --enable-ipv6 configure option is turned on by default. It
shouldn't cause problems on modern OSes. If you ever get a compile
error in gauche.net module on a platform that lacks modern API,
specify --disable-ipv6 option to ./configure.
* (This is an internal change of undocumented feature. We mention
it just in case if some extension packages depend on this.) In
the initialization code generated by genstub or precomp, it
used to be possible to refer to the current module by mod. Now
you should use Scm_CurrentModule() instead. Also,
gauche.cgen.unit now doesn't include <gauche.h> automatically.
[Improvements]
* The compiler is improved to avoid creating a closure at
execution time when it doesn't close local environment. For
example, (map (^x (* x x)) lis) doesn't create a closure;
instead, the internal lambda is compiled as if it is a
toplevel-defined procedure. (Yeah, it's a simple lambda
lifting. We didn't do it since it could slow down the
compiler. Now the compiler is efficient enough to handle it.)
* Supports zero or multi-argument unquote/unquote-splicing, as
defined in R6RS.
* sys-exec and sys-fork-and-exec now supports :detached keyword
argument to make the child process detached from the parent's
process group.
* Buliltin reverse and reverse! takes optional list-tail
argument.
* A new builtin procedure map* that can deal with dotted list.
* Common Lisp-like ecase macro is added.
* The extended lambda formals (:key, :optional, etc) are now
available in define-method as well.
* New built-in function sys-clearenv, useful to fork subprocess
securely.
* rxmatch-case accepts (else => proc) form, just like case.
* Socket address objects (e.g. <sockaddr-un>) can now be compared
by equal? based on its content. Useful to put them in a
hashtable, for example.
* gauche.uvector: A new procedure uvector-copy! that can copy any
type of uvectors.
* gauche.test: A new test expected result constructor test-one-of
allows to check if the test result matches any one of possible
outcomes.
* control.thread-pool: Now a pool raises <thread-pool-shut-down>
condition if the pool has already be shut down and no longer
accepting new jobs. terminate-all now takes :cancel-queued-jobs
keyword argument to stop the pool immediately, instead of
waiting for all the jobs to be finished. Canceled jobs are
marked as killed . New APIs: thread-pool-results,
thread-pool-shut-down?.
* rfc.json: Allow construct-json to take optional output port for
the consistency.
* rfc.uri: A new procedure uri-merge that can be resolve a
relative uri in regart to a base uri.
* rfc.cookie: Recognize :http-only cookie attribute introduced in
RFC6265.
* Now the tilde `~' expansion of sys-normalize-pathname works on
Windows as well to refer to the current user's home directory;
it tries environment variables heuristically to find it. To
refer to other user's home directory by ~user is still only
available on Unix platforms, though.
* util.combinations: combinations is optimized to handle leaf
cases efficiently.
[Bux fixes]
* Fixed a bug that the number parser hangs when reading
2.2250738585072012e-308.
* Integer multiplication routine had a code that depended on
undefined behavior of C; it worked on gcc but revealed the bug
on clang-llvm.
* Fixed a module bug on the visibility of bindings of extended
modules.
* gauche.parameter: Fixed a couple of bugs on parameter objects.
* Numeric comparison procedures such as < didn't work correctly
when more than four arguments were given. The bug was
introduced by incorrect optimization.
* Fixed bugs in lognot, logand, logior and logxor, which crashed
when non-integer ratinoal numbers are passed.
* port->string, port->string-list: These procedures returned
prematurely when the input contains an illegal byte sequence
for internal encoding. Now they return an incomplete string
instead.
* srfi-1: Some srfi-1 procedures that are built-in were not
exported, causing errors when you wanted to import them
selectively, e.g. (use srfi-1 :only (fold)).
* util.queue: Fixed list->queue to work.
* binary.pack: Fixed a bug that the result may be truncated if
the input contains byte sequences that can be interpreted as
invalid character multibyte sequences.
* srfi-42: Fixed a hygiene bug; the previous versions failed when
only toplevel macros are imported using :only import option.
* rfc.json: Fixed a bug that didn't escape double-quotes in the
string, and didn't handle empty array.
* Coding-aware ports didn't count lines correctly in CR-only or
CRLF line endings.
* Fixed a problem that caused crash after changing metaclasses of
a class metaobject. An additional protection mechanism is in
place in the class metaobject so that it won't be in an
inconsistent state unexpectedly.
* Fixed sys-setenv in which you couldn't omit the overwrite
argument, even if it was described optional.
* Fixed build problem of gauche.net on Solaris.
* Fixed a bug in gauche-package that caused an error when
*load-path* contained a nonexistent path.
* Fixed a bug in string comparison routine that surfaces in a
special architecture.
* The printed output of <time> was incorrect when its value was
negative.
* There was a bug in the reader it reads ().() incorrectly.
* Fixed a bug in format to allow ~* to position after the last
argument.
* Fixed GC compliation problem on OSX Lion.

Changes in Racket 5.1.3
This is a bugfix release, resolving the DrRacket issue with
the contour view. In addition, two tex files with problematic
licensing were removed.
Changes in Racket 5.1.2
* The download page includes 64-bit installers for Mac OS X,
Windows, and two Debian flavors. Racket now supports OS X Lion.
* Racket now includes a new `racket/place' library to support
parallelism, complementing `racket/future'. Racket's parallel
build process is now based on places instead of multiple OS
processes.
Places support share-nothing parallelism and message-passing
communication. Compared to futures, places are heavyweight, but
they have a simpler performance model.
* The syntax-certificate system has been replaced by a syntax-taint
system. Both certificates and taints were designed to protect
otherwise inaccessible bindings from abuse when they appear in
macro expansions. Taints are simpler and lighter, and the switch
closes known holes in the certificate system. Macros that are not
implemented with `syntax-rules' or `define-syntax-rule', however,
must explicitly use `syntax-protect' to protect their expansions
from abuse.
* The `net/url' library supports HTTPS connections, but beware that
by default all sites are accepted (equivalent to ignoring a
browser's warnings about untrusted certificates).
* Error messages in the student languages use a simplified
vocabulary and consistent phrasings. If you maintain curriculum
material or teachpacks then please consider updating. See the
"Error Message Composition Guidelines" section in the
documentation for details.
* Typed Racket: almost all core Racket data structures and
operations are now accessible in Typed Racket (most of this work
is due to prolific contributor Eric Dobson). The performance of
the typechecker has been significantly improved.
* The `scriblib/bibtex' library supports BibTeX-formatted citation
databases in Scribble documents. BibTeX can be tricky to parse,
so please report failed entries as bug reports.
* The `for' forms now support an `#:unless' clause, and a
nonnegative integer can be used as a sequence. The new `compose1'
function creates single-valued composition functions. The
`racket/function' library now provides `identity', `thunk', and
`thunk*'.
* The license has been clarified: we now use LGPLv2.1 uniformly.
(The license file used to specify LGPLv2, contrary to the download
pages.)
Here is quote from the article of Ruby Inside.
(http://www.rubyinside.com/ruby-1-9-2-p290-released-the-lowdown-on-rubys-latest-production-release-5145.html) For more change, please refer:
http://svn.ruby-lang.org/repos/ruby/tags/v1_9_2_290/ChangeLog
What's Changed From p180 to p290?
Quite a lot got changed in terms of the numbers. 132 files were
tweaked with a total of 3505 lines added and 788 taken away.
A selection of the fixes:
* require 'date'; Date.new === nil throws an undefined method error for
coerce on p180 - this has now been fixed
* The Thread.kill segfaults when the object to be killed isn't a thread bug
has been resolved.
* Tweaks to reduce segmentation faults when using zlib on x86-64 Darwin
(OS X) - always good
* Modification to prevent random number sequence repetition on forked child
processes in SecureRandom
* Fix to io system to resolve a Windows-only bug where characters are being
read incorrectly due to ASCII not being treated as 7 bit
* A tweak to Psych (the YAML parser) to plug a memory leak
* Load paths are now always expanded by rb_et_expanded_load_path (I think
this might yield a performance gain?)
* Fixes to Psych's treatment and testing of string taint
* Prevention of temporary objects being garbage collected in some cases
* Fixes to resolve compilation problems with Visual C++ 2010
* A fix so that Tk's extconf.rb would run successfully
* Lots of Tk related fixes generally - I'm guessing Tk is very popular
amongst the core team, particularly in Japan, because it seems to be a
common release blocker.
* A fix to string parsing to resolve an obscure symbol-containing-newlines
parsing bug
If it specified, it modify gemspec's dependency using update-gemspec.rb
Ruby script.
The goal is avoid to use patch for modifying depending version or gem's
name since gemspec files' content differ using rubygem's version.
move PKGREVISION to each Makefile including the Makefile.common for
keep version number, and bump again for ocaml-graphics because the
previous bump resuited in downgrade.
* Several modules were updated to fix minor bugs.
* Tests were fixed.
* Documentation was improved.
Changes 5.14.0:
* Unicode version 6.0 is now supported.
* Regular expressions can now be reset to the default modifiers.
* Four new regular expression modifiers, "/d", "/l" , "/u", and "/a", were
introduced.
* The substitution operators now support the modifier "/r" to work
non-destructively, leaving the original unmodified.
* Larger octals can now be specified.
* Array and hash operators can now experimentally operate directly on hard
references.
* printf-like functions now understand post-1980 size modifiers.
* Exception handling was made more reliable and consistent.
* Other enhancements and many bug fixes were made
PkgSrc:
* Fixed configuring on Mac OS X 10.7.
From upstream comment:
nm isn't known to work after Snow Leopard and XCode 4; testing with OS X 10.5
and Xcode 3 shows a working nm, but pretending it doesn't work produces no
problems.
From upstream commit log:
Testing from 10.5 with Xcode 3 to the latest OS X works with usenm='false' but
not always with usenm='true'
Changes in version 5.1.1, May 2011:
Enabled single-precision floats by default
Added single-flonum?

have the same precision
Changed file-or-directory-permission to add 'bits mode
and permission-setting mode
Added special treatment of void as an 'inferred-name property
Removed the "MrEd" compatability executable under Windows
and Mac OS X, but the "mred" compatibility script remains

Changes in version 5.1, February 2011
Renamed "proxy" to "impersonator"
Added current-get-interaction-input-port, which enables
racket/gui events to be dispatched while a REPL is blocked
Changed equal? to equate C pointers when they refer to the
same address
Internal: weak boxes are cleared before non-will-like
finalizers; use late-weak boxes to get the old behavior
Changes in version 5.0.2, October 2010
Changed body of `when', `unless', `cond' clauses, `case'
clauses, and `match' clauses to be internal-definition contexts
Swapped unsafe-vector*-ref with unsafe-vector-ref, etc.
Added ->i to the contract library, improved ->*, adding #:pre and
#:post, as well as making the optional arguments clause optional.

as proxy property; beware that the word "proxy" will change in
a future version, perhaps to "impersonator"
Added collection-file-path and collection splicing at the file
level
Upstream changes:
- Core
+ Parrot_PMC_destroy, Parrot_PMC_mark and Parrot_PMC_invoke were removed from
the public extension API.
+ PAST now has PAST::Stmt node types, supports reusable temporary registers.

+ Winxed
- Improved compile time scope search.
- Added 'using namespace' statement.
- Compiler classes and functions now live in the Winxed;Compiler namespace.
- Tests

environment variable. Setting it to a true value will show timing results
for a test run.
+ IPv6 tests are now parallel testing friendly.
It was really needed by devel/ruby-railties, sigh.

$ make install
$ cd work/ocaml-3.12.0/testsuite && gmake one DIR=tests/lib-dynlink-native
(Not in a build-env because that uses the wrappers, which don't let the
test suite see the installed OCaml files.)
This is only a workaround on NetBSD/{i386,amd64} for the problems of
OCaml PR#5049 <http://caml.inria.fr/mantis/view.php?id=5049>. (E.g.,
this workaround makes Coccinelle build on those platforms -- but it
still won't build on platforms with native compilation but no native
dynamic loading. Need to hack everything that uses dynlink to have
four compile-time cases -- {yes,no} {byte,nat}dynlink.)
John Marino per PM
-deal with possibly builtin gmp/mpfr/mpc libs (this is incomplete
for D'fly -- choices are to convert the pre-configure test or
to set USE_BUILTIN.x=no)
This is the list of problem reports (PRs) from GCC's bug tracking
system that are known to be fixed in the 4.5.3 release. This list
might not be complete (that is, it is possible that some PRs that
have been fixed are not listed here):
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?bug_status=RESOLVED&resolution=FIXED&target_milestone=4.5.3
On the PowerPC compiler, the altivec builtin functions vec_ld and
vec_st have been modified to generate the Altivec memory instructions
LVX and STVX, even if the -mvsx option is used. In the initial GCC
4.5 release, these builtin functions were changed to generate VSX
memory reference instructions instead of Altivec memory instructions,
but there are differences between the two instructions. If the VSX
instruction set is available, you can now use the new builtin
functions vec_vsx_ld and vec_vsx_st which always generates the VSX
memory instructions.
There was incompatible result by previous fix and it should be gone away.
Beside ths security fix, ${PREFIX}/bin/phar.phar has correct shbang line.
Bump PKGREVISION.
* Include XML_Util 1.2.1 which should be included from 1.9.0.

I had been using this for at least 18 months on various platforms
including with some modules.
(This work was done via wip, but I had custom patches too for lang/python.)
for some systems that have older openssl. (The Makefile
part was already there but was unused.)
Also replace interpreter for all scripts.
This caused the build attempt to rebuild opcode_targets.h. But
that uses "python" which does not exist yet.
If the package needs newer version in ruby{18,19}-base, set
RUBY_RDOC_REQD to minimum rdoc's version. ruby{18,19}-base have
these versions.
ruby18-base: rdoc 1.0.1
ruby19-base: rdoc 2.5.8
A package RUBY_RDOC_REQD set and built with devel/ruby-rdoc, it
will be also depends devel/ruby-rdoc package not only build time.
Because, files generated by rdoc commands of devel/ruby-rdoc may
not usable with ri commands in ruby{18,19}-base.

Mac OS X and FreeBSD to reduce the chances of a crash instead of a
"maximum recursion depth" RuntimeError exception.

(length bigger than 2^31-1 bytes).
- Issue #8651: Fix "z#" format of PyArg_Parse*() function: the size was not
written if PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN is defined.

chars (e.g. u"\U00012345"[0]).
- Issue #11650: PyOS_StdioReadline() retries fgets() if it was interrupted
(EINTR), for example if the program is stopped with CTRL+z on Mac OS X. Patch

Previously, there were some corner cases where a long was returned even
though the result was within the range of an int.
- Issue #11450: Don't truncate hg version info in Py_GetBuildInfo() when
there are many tags (e.g. when using mq). Patch by Nadeem Vawda.

non-Python managed memory while it is being modified by another thread.
Patch by Matt Bandy.
- Issue #11004: Repaired edge case in deque.count().
- Issue #8278: On Windows and with a NTFS filesystem, os.stat() and os.utime()
can now handle dates after 2038.

Patch by Torsten Becker.
- Issue #10674: Remove unused 'dictmaker' rule from grammar.

float.__divmod__ with respect to signed zeros. -4.0 % 4.0 should be
0.0, not -0.0.
- Issue #11386: bytearray.pop() now throws IndexError when the bytearray is
empty, instead of OverflowError.

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.

Changes in 4.7.0
- Build system
- On BSD, libchicken.so is linked with -lpthread, as this seems
to be required for linking libraries that require pthreads
- The C header-files are now installed in a subdirectory below
the "PRFIX/include" directory to allow installation of multiple
chickens with different PROGRAM_PREFIX/PROGRAM_SUFFIX settings
in the same prefix; to avoid conflicts with existing CHICKEN
headers, it is recommended to completely remove any old
installation before installing the new version
- the PROGRAM_PREFIX and PROGRAM_SUFFIX configuration settings
are applied to generated files and directories which allows
perform differently named installations into the same PREFIX
- increaded binary-compatibility version from 5 to 6, which
means installed extensions in an existing installations will
have to be re-installed
- bugfixes in mingw/msys makefiles
- Sven Hartrumpf contributed a bugfix to the internal helper
script for creating distribution directories
- Peter Bex has cleaned up the makefiles heavily, making the
build more maintainable and easier to modify; thanks to all
who helped testing this new build

a make(3) other than GNU make
- configuration-header fix for BSD systems (thanks to Peter Bex
and Christian Kellermann)

available as an extension which should be fully backwards-
compatible

sequences inside strings (thanks to Mario Domenech Goulart,
thanks to Kon Lovett for pointing out a missing test-file)

enhancements
- "library" unit
- Added "condition->list" (thanks to Christian Kellermann)
- The reader accepts now escaped octal character codes in string
literals
- Read-syntax can return zero values to indicate ignored objects
- R5RS output output routines now always return a "void" result

- make-pointer-vector
- pointer-vector?
- pointer-vector-length
- pointer-vector-ref
- pointer-vector-set!
- "posix" unit
- "close-input-pipe" did not return the status code of a
terminated process on Windows (reported by Mario Domenech Goulart)
- added `file-creation-mode' (suggested by Mario Domenech Goulart)
- "setup-api" unit
- `required-extension-version' and `required-chicken-version' have
been deprecated
- "srfi-18" unit
- removed deprecated `milliseconds->time' and `time->milliseconds'
procedures
- `make-mutex' incorrectly created mutexes as initially owned by
the current threads (thanks to Joerg Wittenberger)

and performs some sanity checks
- deadlock in the scheduler now terminates the process instead of
attempting to throw an error
- added some sanity checks to the scheduler

bindings which could result in toplevel assignments being
silently dropped (reported by Moritz Heidkamp)

specify the target profile data file - now `-profile-name'
must always be given when accumulated profiling is done
(thanks to Taylor Venable)
- added `-module' option, which wraps the code into an implicit
module
- removed check for unsafe toplevel calls in safe mode
- intrinsic handling of `exact->inexact' and `string->number' is
now more efficient

block-mode
- fixed incorrect lambda-list check in scrutinizer (thanks to
Alan Post)
- Kon Lovett reported numerous bugs in the type-database used
by the scrutinizer
- `-fwrapv' is disabled on OpenBSD, since the default compiler
does not support this option (thanks to Christian Kellermann)
- on Solaris `gcc' is used by default, override `C_COMPILER'
to use the Sun compiler instead
- declaring a function `notinline' will prevent direct-call
optimization for known procedure calls
- the implementation of overflow-detection for arithmetic operations
on fixnums have been replaced and now allow using the full 63-bit

- optimization-levels 3 and higher imply `-unboxing -inline-global'
- added new declaration `unsafe-specialized-arithmetic' which allows
optimizing unboxed floating-point arithmetic in safe mode
- removed `scrutinize' declaration
- the warning shown when unimported identifiers are used in compiled

and provided a low-level API in the `lolevel' library unit for
manipulating pointer vectors
- Runtime system
- Fixed typo in "runtime.c" (thanks to Sven Hartrumpf)
- Little-endian detection on MIPS systems was not correct (thanks
to Christian Kellermann)
- Fixed bug in handling of runtime-options with arguments (also
reported by Christian Kellermann)
- `equal?' does not compare procedures recursively anymore
- fixed incorrect use of alloca.h on OpenBSD (thanks to
Christian Kellermann and Alan Post)

operations, which required various changes to `chicken.h'
to make the code compile in ISO C99 mode
- remaining debris regarding MSVC builds has been removed
- fixed bug in argument-type check for 64-bit integer (thanks
to Kon Lovett)
- increased default trace-buffer size from 10 to 16

a non-inlined internal use in the expander (thanks to David
Steiner)
- `define-record' now allows defining SRFI-17 setter procedures
for accessing slots
- the expansion of DSSSL lambda-lists uses now `let-optionals*'
internally instead of `let-optionals' and so allows

(see `ir-macro-transformer')
- record-definitions are now made local to the module in which
they are defined (thanks to Jim Ursetto)

anymore (suggested by Christian Kellermann)
Local changes:
o Remove local fix which has been adopted upstream.
Upstream changes:
3.4.0 news:
- Core
+ The Generational Mark and Sweep garbage collector is the new default.
+ The --gc-nursery-size command line argument was added.
+ Parrot now gets entropy from the underlying OS.
+ The NCI subsystem now supports 8, 16, 32 and 64 bit integers.
+ The NCI subsystem now supports "long long" and "long double" signatures.
Not all platforms/compilers support these non-standard types, so developers
are cautioned to take note that using them reduces portability.
+ Many more OpenGL functions in the Parrot OpenGL bindings are available,
which required the above-mentioned signatures.
+ Bytecode-related embedding api functions moved to src/embed/bytecode.c.
- Languages
+ Winxed
- Use 'using extern' for module imports.
- Improved stage 0 prefix ++ and -- operators.
- Allow 'null' in conditional operator.
- Several examples are updated.
- Community
+ Google Summer of Code Bonding period is going well. Students are
mostly done with their classes and much code will flow soon.
- Documentation
+ More PCT introductions are available.
3.3.0 news:
