I've looked into this a bit more, finally.  I stepped through 
slime-find-next-note and friends and what I see is that in 
slime-find-note, funcall of next-candicate-fn returns a value pointing 
to the end of the buffer.  Hence, no more notes.

next-candidate-fn is next-single-char-property-change so perhaps the 
overlay changes are causing this failure.

I'll poke around some more.
