[Ecls-list] Very strange problem loading cmp.fsl

[Dan Corkill]

This bug has been around for a while (so it's not related to the recent
sets of CVS changes), but until recently I didn't have time to whittle
it down to a simple case.  It is a very strange bug, as it is triggered
by conditional input lines that should be ignored by ECL!

Here goes:

$ ecl -norc

;;; Loading "/home/cork/Desktop/ecl-cmp-bug.lsp"
;;; Loading #P"/usr/local/lib/ecl/cmp.fas"
The value of *PACKAGE*, NIL, was not a package
Broken at EVAL.No restarts available.
Broken at LOAD.
>> :b
Backtrace: LOAD > eval > load > eval
>>

The simple test file used above is attached.

Running on FC6, latest CVS, built with:

./configure --with-tcp --enable-threads=yes

Best regards & keep up the good work!!!
