Subject: documenting share/contrib & a few test failures
From: Barton Willis

(1) I've been writing texinfo user documentation for some
/share/contrib functions. Maybe we should have a standard way to tell
users that code in /share/contrib might change, might not be as well
tested as other code, ... Suggestions? A common link to an explanation
about /share/contrib?
(2) Also, minor bugs: with SBCL 1.0.22, rtest_gmama tests 313, 321, and 329
fail:
