this is due to a badly implemented change i made to the signals macro.
Grab the 'Fix api-breakage in SIGNALS' patch from the darcs repo.

odd. Using SBCL 0.9.6.37 (and the recently fixed fiveam code) i was able
to load fiveam and the test suite ran successfully.

the with-run-state macro is defined by the call to
def-special-environment in fiveam/src/check.lisp. i'm somewhat at a lost
as to what's going on. is asdf trying to compile the code before loading
the check.lisp file?

thanks for the comprehensive reporting! if the latest fiveam code works
for you i'll make a tarball and release it as fiveam 2.0.
