[Bese-devel] UCW and CLISP

[lists at infoway.net]

I have to say: I just downloaded the latest ucw-boxset and SBCL's source
code. Recompiled SBCL with thread support (even though it's still
experimental in my environment) and UCW Ajax works just fine (still only
in Firefox) and I can connect to it with SLIME.

Any advise as to any reported incompatibilities in this latest version of
SBCL?

Thanks,
Daniel
