The changed interface is in the sbcl cvs with many bug fixes. 0.9.2 has 
several deadlock possibilities and is not recommended for serious use. On the 
bright side threads on x86-64 are supported.

       * swank-sbcl.lisp (threaded stuff): make SBCL 0.9.2.9+ work while
       retaining support for 0.9.2

The thread id mapping code is messy and can potentially exceed 2^27-1 leading 
to communication problems with emacs.
