Hmm, the CVS version needs the REGEXP module.  Apparently that isn't
loaded in your CLISP version.  

You could try this with Slime 2.0 and CLISP 2.33:

1. start CLISP in a terminal and load the Swank server with 
   (load "swank-loader.lisp")

2. enable debug output with
   (setq swank:*log-events* t)

3. start the server
   (swank:create-server)

4. in Emacs type `M-x slime-connect' 

Emacs should then try to connect and you should see at least some
output in the terminal.  Perhaps we can learn from that where the
segmentation fault occurs.

Helmut.
