[slime-devel] CMUCL: cannot find core file after 2004-11-07

[Chisheng Huang]

Greetings,

Before 2004-11-07, I could fire up CMUCL with my own lisp core image, pcore,
this way:
  M-x dired <RET> directory-containing-pcore <RET>
  C-u M-x slime <RET> <SPC> -core pcore <RET>

After I did a CVS update on 2004-11-07, doing the same thing gets me the
following error message:
  Cannot find core file pcore
  Based on lisp binary path `/usr/local/cmucl/bin/lisp'
  
  Process inferior-lisp exited abnormally with code 1

Doing a CVS update with -D "2004-11-06" got me back a version of Slime that
won't bark at my "C-u M-x slime <RET> <SPC> -core pcore <RET>"

Is this change on 2004-11-07 a bug or feature?

I'm using CMUCL 19a (x86, Linux) and GNU EMACS 21.3.1.

Best wishes,
