Due to a few requests lately, I thought I should mention something:
This code is obsolete.

It only ever really worked on SBCL, and even there not perfectly. I'm
rewriting it as something that should work everywhere, but meanwhile
any non-fatal bugs are going to go unfixed - sorry about that.

Oh, and the "s" key (activate-stepping) won't work. Use the restarts.
