FYI, Debian doesn't include xref.lisp anymore, as you can see from
the Debian changelog [1]:
=====
slime (1:20060306-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream version.
  * Removed xref.lisp file.

 -- Peter Van Eynde <pvaneynd at debian.org>  Tue,  7 Mar 2006 14:37:41 +0100
=====

The last references to xref.lisp was removed with the next upload [2]:
=====
slime (1:20060328-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream
  * removed xref.lisp from swank.asd for clisp (Closes: #359215)

 -- Peter Van Eynde <pvaneynd at debian.org>  Tue, 28 Mar 2006 12:30:19 +0200
=====

So, xref.lisp is no more a problem.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
