16-bits large arguments.
Macros are implemented as two-argument functions, leaving argument checking
to funcall() and apply() and thus saving space.
AND, WHEN and OR are plain macros. No optimizer is required in the bytecodes
compiler.
+Deftype BIT-VECTOR would not expand to a vector type.
+Each compiled file has an entry point whose name is either
init_CODE() or another name based on the name of the source file.
The algorithm for computing these names has been slightly changed
so that the entry points of ECLS's own library do not conflict with
user defined entry points.
+A LET/LET* form in which the initializers for a variable have not
the expected type produce a warning, but the code is accepted. For
instance (LET (V) (DECLARE (TYPE FIXNUM V)) (SETQ V 1)) now
compiles.
+(SETF name), where name is a symbol, is now a valid function name in all
contexts. It is accepted by DEFUN, FUNCTION, FBOUNDP, FMAKUNBOUND, etc,
and it can be the on the function position in any form.
+New specialized arrays for (UNSIGNED-BYTE 8) and (SIGNED-BYTE 8).
This stack is also used to build the Invocation History records, which keep
track of which functions are called and which are their local environments.
With these changes, the debugger now works to the extend that it inspecting
these Invocation History Records with :backtrace, :up, :down, :variables,
now output the rights values.
