There is currently no support for CMUCL's non-preemptive
multithreading.  The code for other multithreaded Lisps wouldn't work
for CMUCL. 

We use signal driven IO CMUCL.  That means you should set the Emacs
variable slime-multiprocessing to nil.  SLIME no longer interferes
mp::startup-idle-and-top-level-loops and you can call it whenever you
like.
