It works. Thanks for the answer.

Speaking of *inferior-lisp*, there is one more thing. AServe can be told to 
enter the debugger when a worker thread encounters an error. In this case 
under CMUCL the debugger appears in the *inferior-lisp* buffer.

(Under sbcl-mt it is nowhere to be found, but it is probably due to this and 
not SLIME related:
  debugger invoked on a SB-INT:SIMPLE-CONTROL-ERROR in thread 5669:
    attempt to RETURN-FROM a block or GO to a tag that no longer exists
)

OK, *one* more thing:

(defun long-running-printer ()
  (dotimes (i 3)
    (prin1 i)
    (force-output)
    (sleep 2)))

Now, lets wait for '1', type 't', wait for '2' to appear and then press enter:

  CL-USER> (long-running-printer)
  01t2<enter>
  Error: the variable T2 is unbound.

If one presses enter only after the prompt appears then:

  CL-USER> (long-running-printer)
  0t12
  NIL
  CL-USER> 
  ; No value

which isn't very good either.
