Issues with package location information on SBCL

This does seem to illustrate an issue with the current "export 
everything that's in UIOP" strategy.

Should we consider changing this policy?

Or, if we have "internal" functions that we don't want to be visible 
through `UIOP/DRIVER`, should we simply not export them from the 
sub-packages and use `:import-from` to move them among the sub-packages?

Best,
