I don't quite understand the question.  Currently, no other
implementation uses with-compilation-unit for this feature and I don't
expect this to change any time soon.  Some implementations have
something that's essentially a declaration and in CMUCL we can supply
our source info to compile-from-stream.  For SLIME we will use
whatever works best for a particular implementation.

Helmut.
