instance, now "HOME:FOO.LISP" matches the translation rule
("**/*.*" "~/**/*.*"), which formerly it did not. Also, add a logical
hostname for the home directory.
be saved, because it may be overwritten by a BLOCK or TAGBODY inside
the normal exit form.
2) Implement Invocation History Stack as a chain of stack-allocated records.
3) In compiled TAGBODY forms, replace tags with numbers to save space.
LAMBDA-PARAMETERS-LIMIT are both 64. Up to C-ARGUMENTS-LIMIT may be
passed to a function using C calling conventions. If the function is
to retrieve more arguments, (for instance through a &rest variable),
this can be done, but then the arguments have to be pushed on the lisp
stack. This method allows us to raise the CALL-ARGUMENTS-LIMIT up to
MOST-POSITIVE-FIXNUM. From a users point of view, there is no visible
change, excep the fact that a function may receive more arguments.
The function apply() has been replaced with cl_apply_from_stack().
The former took a pointer to the list of arguments. The latter assumes
that the last "narg" elements on the lisp stack are the arguments of
the function.
kept in a single array, "cl_symbols". The translator "dpp" and the
routine SI::MANGLE-NAME, output the right name for any symbol
which is in this array.
- Enable simple allocator to use mmap()
- Rewrite cmpwt.lsp so that it produces files with short lines and ANSI strings
- Fix mkdir so that it accepts a parameter for the mode
growth of the stack and in the way va_arg() arguments can be accessed.
Fix the bytecodes compiler so that it handles toplevel forms properly and
so that it understands LOCALLY.
Split configure.in into configure.in+aclocal.m4 and improve the resulting
tests.
meaningful names for the exported functions. For instance,
(proclaim '(si::c-export-fname union))
is used to produce a C function with name clLunion, which can be directly used
in other compiled files. This feature has been applied to almost all functions
in the Lisp runtime.
