  • The match form checks that when non-linear patterns (patterns
    where the same variable is used multiple times) are used with ...,
    the two parts of the matched value actually are equal. Additionally,
    match rejects non-linear patterns where one use of the variable is
    used with ... and another is not. This repair could cause existing
    code to fail.
  • Typed Racket's types for the asin and acos procedures correctly
    handle situations where the function produces a complex number,
    avoiding unsound results that were previously possible. This repair
    could cause existing code to fail at compile time.
  • The #%foreign-inline core syntactic form provides unsafe access to
    facilities provided at the linklet layer by a Racket implementation.
    This means that any code that handles all core forms by enumeration
    will need to be updated.
  • Unicode 17.0 is used for character and string operations.
  • This release includes internal support for a more static "ffi2"
    foreign interface (to be used in a future package).
  • The terminal-file-position function counts bytes written to ports
    connected to a terminal, such as stdin and stderr.
  • Cross-phase persistent modules allow more types of quoted data.
  • The implementations of member, memw, when, unless, let/ec,
    and cond are rewritten to use only racket/kernel syntax
  • The impersonator-property-predicate-procedure? function identifies
    procedures created by make-impersonator-property.
  • In Typed Racket, polymorphic struct types are printed using type
    arguments (e.g., (Array Byte)) rather than exposing an internal
    representation.
  • The stepper's display of numbers better matches the language
    settings.
  • Scribble documents that do not use the Racket-manual style get an
    initial-scale of 1.0, instead of the manual style's 0.8, but this
    can be configured using the initial-scale property.
  • By default, margin notes appear inline for narrow displays in all
    styles, not just in the Racket-manual style.
  • Big-bang programs distributed as .dmg files correctly handle the
    close-on-stop feature.
  • There are many other repairs and documentation improvements!
