29  <dt>Fixed special bindings un-binding in compiled code for
30   MULTIPLE-VALUE-BIND, LET, LET*, PROGV and function bodies</dt>
31  </dt>
32  <dd>Special bindings now will get unbound even in case of (non-Lisp)
33      exceptions.
34  </dd>
35  <dt>Reduced ANSI failures in interpreted mode</dt>
36  <dd>RESTART-CASE wrongly didn't use the macro expansion environment
37    to expand subforms.
38  </dd>
39  <dt>Lisp build system changed for parity with the Ant based build</dt>
40  <dd>The Lisp build was lagging behind on adjustments made to the Ant
41    based build.  abcl.jar generated from either should now be the same.
42  </dd>
43  <dt>Several fixes to numeric calculations</dt>
44  <dd>EXPT fixed for (EXPT NUMBER BIGNUM) and (EXPT BIGNUM RATIO).
45    Also, ACOS with a complex double-float argument.

57  <dt>JSR-223: Java Scripting Plugin
58  </dt>
59  <dd>ABCL supports - when built with the <code>javax.script</code> package
60    in the CLASSPATH - the interfaces defined in <a href="http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/J2SE/Desktop/scripting/">JSR-223</a>.
61  </dd>
62  <dt>Support for inlining FLOAT results</dt>
63  <dd>When given the right DECLARE forms, ABCL is now able to inline
64    calculations and intermediate values relating to FLOAT types.  Before,
65    it used to box all FLOAT values and results, without inlining.</dd>
66  <dt>Compiler cleanups</dt>
67  <dd>Lots of code cleanup in the compiler, such as elimination of
68    nearly-equivalent code blocks.</dd>
69  <dt>TRACE-ing fixes</dt>
70  <dd>TRACE should no longer blow up when tracing FORMAT or inside
71    the compiler.</dd>
72  <dt>Support for "partial" wildcards in CL:DIRECTORY</dt>
73  <dd>Patterns such as #p"cl-*.lisp" are now supported.</dd>

78<p>These release notes have not been created before. If someone takes
79  the effort to create them, they will be added for 0.11 and 0.12.</p>
