Re: freeze for sbcl-2.6.2

I'm just not even sure how it can be mentioned in the NEWS:
"hey, if you use weak hash-tables things might crash randomly, or the
GC might enter an infinite loop. So use sbcl 2.5.11 if you care about
these things. But there are other fixes for memory corruptions
included since 2.5.11. But don't despair, these are just the things we
know about"
