CVS annotate of the relevant slime.el code:

1.662        (heller   16-Oct-06):     (format "%S\n\n"
1.662        (heller   16-Oct-06):             `(progn
1.748        (mbaringe 17-Jan-07):                (load ,(expand-file-name loader) :verbose t)
1.905        (heller   16-Feb-08):                (funcall (read-from-string "swank-loader:init"))
1.662        (heller   16-Oct-06):                (funcall (read-from-string "swank:start-server")
1.662        (heller   16-Oct-06):                         ,port-filename
1.689        (heller   19-Nov-06):                         :coding-system ,encoding)))))
1.59         (lgorrie  25-Oct-03): 


(swank-loader:load-swank) clearly missing. Or it should be called from
swank-loader:init, or whatever the startup method d'jour is ...
