Matthew Emerson. I am still getting the same problem.</div><div><br></div><div>I should emphasize that <i>the problem is intermittent, </i>from which I infer that any of ccl, slime, and asdf or some combination may still be the culprit(s). What I mean is, for example, loading asdf in raw ccl (without emacs+slime) does not prove that it's not asdf, since sometimes asdf loads fine when using emacs+slime+ccl. And so forth....</div><div><br></div><div>So I'm now running with ccl version:</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>Version 1.3-r13097M</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>For about a month I ran emacs+slime+sbcl instead of ccl. I do not get this error with sbcl. I tried sbcl again this afternoon; it seems not to exhibit the problem.
