Now I'm real confused, because without telling the Lisp that "IDO:" is a 
logical hostname prefix I get:

dada:~/work/abcl$ sbcl
This is SBCL 1.0.33, an implementation of ANSI Common Lisp.
More information about SBCL is available at <http://www.sbcl.org/>.

SBCL is free software, provided as is, with absolutely no warranty.
It is mostly in the public domain; some portions are provided under
BSD-style licenses.  See the CREDITS and COPYING files in the
distribution for more information.
* (TRANSLATE-PATHNAME #P"IDO:IMMUNOLOGY;" #P"IDO:IMMUNOLOGY;**;*.*" 
#P"/Users/alanr/repos/infectious-disease-ontology/trunk/src/ontology/**/*.*")

#P"/Users/alanr/repos/infectious-disease-ontology/trunk/src/ontology/IDO:IMMUNOLOGY;"

Which is definitely not what you want, right?  Or do you have this 
translations defined in initialization files (i.e. "~/.sbclrc")?

With the IDO logical pathname host defined with the SETF on 
LOGICAL-PATHNAME-TRANSLATIONS, I thought you wanted this behavior:

(translate-pathname #P"IDO:IMMUNOLOGY;" #P"IDO:IMMUNOLOGY;**;*.*"
 
#P"/Users/alanr/repos/infectious-disease-ontology/trunk/src/ontology/**/*.*")
#P"/users/alanr/repos/infectious-disease-ontology/trunk/src/ontology/immunology/"

which is what I observe pre-r12283 ABCL doing.
