Perhaps, try to build in a separate directory

./configure [options] build-dir 

The CLISP backend works fine, at least with
*use-dedicated-output-stream* set to t.  Running the test suite a
couple of times gives 10 failed tests of 23, as before.  There's a
problem with slime-disconnect, though.

With *use-dedicated-output-stream* set to nil, it seems that SLIME
doesn't come back to idle state at the end of the test suite.
