This problem is caused by #lisp constantly recommending SBCL to brand
new wet-behind-the-ears lispers.  This is like taking someone who has
walked in the door, curious about pilot training, and putting them in
the pilots seat of a 777, fully loaded and on a takeoff run.  The
results are predictable, but #lisp doesn't care.

Using this situation as justification for controlling slime releases
is ludicrous.
