It is not only wierd but hard to repeat error. And the funny thing thing 
about it is that it occurs when I am in the REPL buffer.

The C-c C-l and `M-x slime-load-file' works fine in other buffers.

But when I run C-c C-l command in REPL buffer, it shows *inferior-lisp* 
buffer.
But on running `M-x slime-load-file'  expliclitly it gives this error:

Signaling: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
   file-name-nondirectory(nil)
   (file-name-sans-extension (file-name-nondirectory (buffer-file-name)))
   (read-file-name "Load file: " nil nil nil (file-name-sans-extension 
(file-name-nondirectory ...)))
   (list (read-file-name "Load file: " nil nil nil 
(file-name-sans-extension ...)))
   call-interactively(slime-load-file)
   command-execute(slime-load-file t)
   execute-extended-command(nil)
   call-interactively(execute-extended-command)

I got it now, it seems that C-c C-l and the function is implemented to 
run only from slime buffers but not REPL.

It is not exactly a bug, but something which should be fixed and allowed 
in REPL(I am assuming that REPL major mode is associated with slime) too.
