the attached patch allows you to get at any object ever returned by
any form in the repl. Considering the way I use to repl this is rather
conveinent (though maybe keeping a reference to every object ever
returned is a bit much...).

i have a few questions (more or less related to this):

1) anybody ever feel that they'd like to get at an objcet returned a
   while ago?

2) just out of idle curiosity how do you guys use the repl? i know
   some people basically don't use it, prefering to do everything
   from buffers, is that common?

3) how the hell do i override the M-RET binding? (in this patch the
   "magic" key is ?\, but i'd prefer M-RET as that'd be consist with
   slime-inspector-copy-down)

4) this patch will probbaly break badly when *print-base*,
   *print-pretty* or other printing variables have non default values.
