+  Features
+
+  - compiler:
+    - load-time special form, similar to load-time-value in ANSI CL.
+      - evaluates an expression on file load whose value is treated as a
+        literal object.
+      - program doesn't have to define a top-level variable; load-time occurs
+        anywhere in code.
+    - code improvement in translation of
+      - string quasiliterals
+      - destructuring (tree bind, macro arguments, ...).
+    - compiler now removes (block ...) constructs that look as if they are not
+      needed.
+  - vm:
+    - big improvement in stack usage of running VM.
+    - addressed some spurious retention issues.
+
+  Bugs
+
+  - autoload
+    - fixed programs experiencing errors due to some library modules not
+      loading.
+      - caused by situations when the dependency from a library module A to B
+        modules was keyed only to the macros provided by B, not B's run-time
+        functions generated by the macros.
+      - of course, compiled code doesn't refer to macros any more.
+  - compiler:
+    - fixed (return x) being mis-compiled as if it were (sys:abscond-from nil x).
+  - awk: fixed multiple expansion of path/command argument in I/O redirection
+    macros ->, ->>, <-, !> and <.
