- Runtime system
- The code generated for mutating data destructively is partially inlined
and thus slightly more efficient.
- - Fixed incorrect code in the foreign argument conversion for "integer64"
- and "unsigned-intger64".

- On systems that provide sigprocmask(2), segmentation violations, illegal
instruction signals, bus errors and floating-point exceptions are now caught
and trigger normal error-processing (including a backtrace). The handling
