Not quite sure what key you have for me there, as I can't SSH with those
credentials from two plausible candidates.  I'll send you a copy of my
<mevenson at abcl.org> public key under separate cover that you can update
for me when you get a chance, ok?

I have replicated this error with the following
LISP-IMPLEMENTATION-VERSION setup.

"1.4.0-dev"
"OpenJDK_64-Bit_Server_VM-Sun_Microsystems_Inc.-1.6.0_32-b40"
"amd64-FreeBSD-11.0-RELEASE-p1"

The error stems from a failure to use Maven to download the JNA binary
artifact "net.java.dev.jna/jna/4.2.2" which ABCL uses to shim the
dynamic linking necessary CFFI to run.  I am not sure if this is a
generic problem with openjdk-6 using Maven, or the particular Maven
installations that our machine happen to have.  When I get a chance,
I'll do some more investigation on my failing instance, and when I get
access to `cl-test-grid.cloud.efficito.com`, I'll try to debug why Maven
is failing for you.  If necessary, we will release an abcl-1.4.1 to fix
the situation.

Thanks again for the fantastic resource that is CL-TEST-GRID!
