abcl-1.4.0 released

[Anton Vodonosov]

I've tried to run cl-test-grid on the new ABCL 1.4.0, but I get a lot of errors like:

    ..........; Compiling /home/testgrid/cl-test-grid/work-dir/agent/quicklisp/dists/quicklisp/software/cffi_0.17.1/src/cffi-abcl.lisp ...
    jnaASDF could not load  because org.armedbear.lisp.Go.


Here is the diff comparing to 1.3.2:
https://common-lisp.net/project/cl-test-grid//abcl/abcl-diff28.html

Is it a bug or some configuration option is needed?

Best regards,
- Anton
