I think I know why.  The fas files compiled with new clx cannot be
used with portable clx and vice versa.  Is it a bug?

I use 'ps -eo pid,%cpu,%mem,rsz,cmd|grep sbcl' to get the following

# after startup
 1729  4.7  6.7 33972 sbcl --eval (asdf:load-system :clfswm) --eval
(clfswm:main) --eval (quit)
# after freezing
 1729  1.9  8.5 43176 sbcl --eval (asdf:load-system :clfswm) --eval
(clfswm:main) --eval (quit)

Why does clisp require this with portable clx but sbcl not?
