I think you're typing at the *inferior-lisp* buffer and not to a SLIME  
repl.

It almost sounds to me as though SLIME isn't working for you.  (Or  
else you're not loading the slime-repl contrib on startup.)

http://trac.clozure.com/openmcl/wiki/InstallingSlime describes a  
configuration that works for me.

Using GNU Emacs 22.3 on Vista x64, C-c C-c interrupts the lisp when  
I'm typing at a SLIME repl (i.e., the buffer is named *slime-repl ccl*).

If I try to use C-c C-c in the *inferior-lisp* buffer, I see the same  
sort of behavior that you report.
