This sounds like a character coding issue (not related to the CMUCL
thing).  It seems as if slime-net-coding-system cannot encode some
compiler message.  That can happen if you call cl:compile-file
manually with some external-format that's incompatible with
slime-net-coding-system, but that would be rather unusual.

What coding systems are you using for the file?  (M-x
describe-coding-system can be used to get that information.)  Have you
customized slime-net-coding-system?  Does the (full) filename contain
non-ascii characters?  Do you have (shell) environment settings for
LANG or some of those LC_XXX variables?
