Hi, when I try to start the version of slime in CVS tarfile from the  
website using M-x slime (with SBCL 1.0.2 on OS X/x86 as my CL  
implementation), I get the following rather intimidating error message:

=== begin scary thing

(progn (load "/Library/Application Support/Emacs/slime/slime/swank- 
loader.lisp" :verbose t) (funcall (read-from-string "swank:start- 
server") "/tmp/slime.7829" :coding-system "iso-latin-1-unix"))

This is SBCL 1.0.2, an implementation of ANSI Common Lisp.

=== end scary thing

I have no idea what's going on here. I do know that SLIME seems to be  
working fine with CLISP, though.

Many thanks,
Matt
