It also mentions avoiding read/print=20 misbehavior, a more-immediate prompt for this change that I forgot to men= tion=20 previously. ** Numbers formatted via %o or %x are now formatted as signed integers. Formerly they were formatted using machine-dependent two's complement representations. The new behavior is machine-independent, avoids misbehavior in calls like (read (format "#x%x" -1)), and is more compatible with bignums, a planned feature. To get the old behavior, set the new, experimental variable binary-as-unsigned to t and please email 32252@debbugs.gnu.org if you need that. Because %o and %x now format signed integers, they now support the + and space flags. (Bug#32252).
