you might want to try using the CVS version, but if it seem s to work 
then i'd just stick with what you have.

this is a slime bug which was fixed a few hours ago.

do you also have problems with the portableaserve backend?

unfortunetely i didn't have time to install an apache on the x86 box so 
i couldn't verify this personally. it does look very "interesting"

recursive request errors happen when there's an error in the action 
code and the error handling code also signals an error. the code which 
could cause this is the inspectable backtrace generator (see 
request-loop-error.lisp), which, given the really weird errors you're 
getting could mean that i'm using the sldb code in ways it shouldn't be 
used. The fact that the error occurs while calling 
DEBUG-INTERNALS:TOP-FRAME supports this.

what error do you get if you set ucw::*debug-on-error* to nil?

yeah, the latest cmucl versions can actually allocate (and free) 
anti-matter. :)
