ABCL 1.5.0 released

[Anton Vodonosov]

I have compared cl-test-grid results of 1.5.0 and 1.4.0:
https://common-lisp.net/project/cl-test-grid/abcl/abcl-diff29.html

One difference is that some systems previously failed with ERROR are now CRASHed.

This means my lisp code doesn't catch the problem, neither with handler-bind, nor with (let ((*debugger-hook* ...)) )

You can reproduce this on cl-test-grid.cloud.efficito.com
(both Mark and Erik can access through ssh testgrid at cl-test-grid.cloud.efficito.com).

We will wrap (ql:quickload :antik) with this code for capturing errors:

    (block main
      (let ((*debugger-hook* (lambda (c me-or-my-encapsulation)
                              (format t "MY: DEBUGGER INVOKED ~A~%" c)
                              (return-from main "FAILED"))))
        (handler-bind ((serious-condition (lambda (c)
                                            (format t "MY: CAUGHT ~A~%" c)
                                            (return-from main "FAILED"))))
          (ql:quickload :antik))))


Full command:

 java -jar ~/lisps/abcl-bin-1.4.0/abcl.jar --noinit --nosystem --batch --eval '(require :abcl-contrib)' --eval '(load "~/cl-test-grid/work-dir/agent/quicklisp/setup.lisp")' --eval '(block main (let ((*debugger-hook* (lambda (c me-or-my-encapsulation)  (format t "MY: DEBUGGER INVOKED ~A~%" c) (return-from main "FAILED")))) (handler-bind ((serious-condition (lambda (c) (format t "MY: CAUGHT ~A~%" c) (return-from main "FAILED")))) (ql:quickload :antik))))'

This finishes as

jnaASDF could not load  because org.armedbear.lisp.Go.

Running the same command with ~/lisps/abcl-bin-1.5.0/abcl.jar doesn't catch the error. The console messages contain this:

I don't know whether the error capturing problem is new to ABCL 1.5.0 or it also was present in 1.4.0 but was hidden on ABCL 1.4.0 failing earlier during (ql:quckload :antik).
