[Openmcl-devel] CVS breaks slime?

[Derrick Baumer]

I just downloaded the latest CVS bleeding-edge OpenMCL and got it to
work (which made me quite proud, no, really), and ran the program I've
been working on with a huge smile on my face.  Assuming recompiles would
be necessary, I deleted my ~/.slime directory and loaded emacs to get to
work.  Typing M-x slime got me this:

The last set, from ;;; #<PROCESS control-thread(3)... repeats
ad-infinitum, scrolling as fast as emacs will keep up, which is,
fortunately, not so fast on my old system.

This happens with the relase (1.2.1) version of slime and the latest 
slime from CVS (the cut-n-paste above is from the CVS version of slime - 
I can get you the release-version output as you like).

It's hard for me to tell if this is an OpenMCL bug or a Slime bug, 
except that the 0.14.3 OpenMCL worked (for my purposes) beautifully with 
slime 1.2.1 and/or the CVS release.  I'd enjoy the opportunity to help 
debug this if you can give me (very thorough) pointers on where/how I 
should look.

Thank you,
