Shouldn't `slime-autodoc-mode' be buffer local?  I'm used to eldoc which
you turn explicitly in one buffer. You toggle it off using the same
function.

With slime-autodoc the global value gets toggled each time you call M-x
slime-autodoc-mode.  This behaviour was very confusing.


BTW You need the following chane if you want to allow
  M-x set-variable slime-use-autodoc-mode
