I assume you mean that's the oldest ACL you're testing with, not the
only one? I'll almost certainly be using (and shipping trial versions
of) some fairly recent version of Allegro with my book. Also, are
there any issues with Allegro that might benefit from some contact
with folks at Franz--I'm not saying I have a lot of pull over there
but they are helping me with the book so if there's anything they
could do to make SLIME work better on Allegro I might be able to talk
to someone.
