An I/O bug on Windows where an EOF on read would cause a crash has been fixed. (reported by Christoph Bauer) A bug that would cause spurious deadlocks with the interactive REPL was fixed. A bug where the last exception handler would get de-installed has been fixed (reported by Emilio Lopes) A bug in bytes->string-n that would cause it to break on incomplete incodings was fixed (reported by Emilio Lopes) Current-os-string-text-codec is now exported from OS-STRINGS as documented (reported by Emilio Lopes) A bug where random text would be printed when a port was closed by GC was fixed.
