[slime-devel] Slime inserting an extra parenthesis

I often use insert-parentheses in XEmacs, and it seems to interact
badly with SLIME.

An example: I begin with:

CL-USER> ()
          ^point

I then type asdf-u<TAB>:u<TAB> and end up with this:

CL-USER> (asdf-upgrade:upgrade))
                               ^point

Notice the extra parenthesis that SLIME inserted.

My guess is that SLIME shouldn't insert this parenthesis. I can
understand where this came from (no extra args, so the user surely wants
to close the parenthesis), but for someone mostly working with balanced
parentheses this isn't too useful.
