50 Summary of changes:
51  * Increased clarity on licensing (Classpath exception
52     mentioned in COPYING, removed LICENSE)
53  * Resolved infinite recursion on TRACEing the compiler
54  * Changes on the lisp based build system for parity with Ant
55  * Fixed interpreter creation in Java Scripting
56  * libabcl.so no longer created; it was solely about installing
57     a SIGINT handler. Libraries should not do that.
58  * boxing of LispObject descendants in JCALL/JCALL-RAW fixed
59  * OpenBSD and NetBSD platform detection
60  * fixed special bindings restores in compiled code for
61     MULTIPLE-VALUE-BIND/LET/LET*/PROGV and function bodies
62  * introduced variadic list() function to replace list1() ... list9()
63  * fix return value type of ACOS with complex argument
64  * fixed precision of multiplication of complex values
65  * fixed use of COMPILE inside file compilation (i.e. COMPILE-FILE)
66  * fix expansion of macros inside RESTART-CASE
67     (fixes RESTART-CASE ANSI failures)
68  * fix macroexpansion in the precompiler
69  * Fixnum and Bignum now use a static factory method;
70      constructors are now private -> increases chances of numbers
71      being EQ
72  * Code cleanup in EXPT to fix (EXPT <any-number> <Bignum>)
