| I don't think you should stop there. There is a dangerous file named
| swank.lisp that is loaded by the lisp and slime.el is loaded by
| emacs. An attacker thwarted by your ChangeLog fix could still modify
| any of those files and take over your computer when you start slime!

See <URL:http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.lisp.slime.devel/7300>
upthread in this thread where I explained why swank.lisp and slime.el
are not a problem.
