For McCLIM, I'd just use the last release or try asdf-install.
http://common-lisp.net/project/mcclim/downloads/mcclim-0.9.6.tar.gz
They also have a nightly CVS snapshot.

Cl-utilities has had no commits after the latest tarball.

It was McCLIM that wanted swank (IIRC for a simple IDE).  Cl-utilities 
requires sb-rotate-byte.
