It +mainly conforms to the ANSI Common Lisp standard. CMUCL provides a +sophisticated native code compiler; a powerful foreign function +interface; an implementation of CLOS, the Common Lisp Object System, +which includes multi-methods and a meta-object protocol; a +source-level debugger and code profiler; and an Emacs-like editor +implemented in Common Lisp. CMUCL is maintained by a team of +volunteers collaborating over the Internet, and is mostly in the +public domain. + +## New in this release: + * Known issues: + * Building with gcc8 or later doesn't work with the default -O option. Use -O1 instead. This shouldn't really impact overall speed much. + * Added simple support to compile with clang instead, which works. (Use x86_linux_clang). + * Feature enhancements + * Update to ASDF 3.3.3 + * Changes + * ANSI compliance fixes: + * Bug fixes: + * Gitlab tickets: + * ~~#73~~ Update clx from upstream clx + * Other changes: + * Improvements to the PCL implementation of CLOS: + * Changes to building procedure: + +This release is not binary compatible with code compiled using CMUCL +21d; you will need to recompile FASL files. + +See http://www.cmucl.org or +https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/cmucl/cmucl for more information, +See +https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/cmucl/cmucl/wikis/GettingCmucl +for obtaining CMUCL, including sources and binaries.. + + +We hope you enjoy using this release of CMUCL!
