I found a message in the November archives where this was fixed in the cvs
version and made the same change to my 0.9.5 source.  Maybe I should just
use the cvs version.  Sorry for not going back far enough when I first
looked for this.

I replaced the line raising the error to call sb-kernel::reader-error
since reader-package-error was just a wrapper around reader-error and the
:: got me around the not-exported error.  Not pretty, but functional.

That got the build to finish.  These look like they may cause problems,
though:

; caught WARNING:
;   These variables are undefined:
;     CLIM-CLX::*CLX-PORT* CLIM-CLX::*FONTSET*
CLIM-INTERNALS::*SYS-%READ-LIST-EXPRESSION*
DREI-LISP-SYNTAX::+CL-GARBAGE-KEYWORDS+ DREI-LISP-SYNTAX::|initial-state |

I haven't investigated them yet, though.  I'll just wait for the runtime
error.

Thanks,
Dave
