[Ecls-list] Slime build failure (Was: Project status)

[Matthew Mondor]

I didn't take time to try with a more recent version of slime yet,
although I've used that tree for a while successfully with various
previous ECL builds.  This is using today's ECL CVS HEAD.

What I get is the following:

[...]

Also, I have no problem with my own software using compile-file and
load.
I'll also try with an up to date slime when I have more time, but I
wanted to post this in case the origin of the problem seems obvious to
others.

Thanks,
