yes, since there is quite a bit of overlap between ucw and bese (and 
not enough movement) i decided fairly early on to not use the ucw-devel 
mailing lists. i'll see about getting the ucw mailing lists removed 
from the nntp server.

my understanding is that the code failed to compile yet the fasl file 
was written anyway, yet you say that if you compile it interactively it 
works fine, very weird. I'm guessing this must be a problem with 
loading/compiling the files out of order. could you try something:

1) load up a fresh cmucl instance.

2) (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :arnesi)

3) (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :yaclml)

4) C-cC-k ucw/src/packages.lisp

5) C-cC-k ucw/src/loggers.lisp

6) C-cC-k ucw/src/backend/protocol.lisp

7) C-cC-k ucw/src/rerl/protocol.lisp

8) C-cC-k ucw/src/rerl/standard-application.lisp

9) tell me about any and every warning/error you get.

If you're able to do this then the asdf file must be missing a 
dependency some place.
