[slime-devel] Re: slime startup with clbuild's START_SLIME_USING_CORE

Hi,

Quoting Helmut Eller (heller at common-lisp.net):

thank you, that was it.  I'm using
  (setf swank:*globally-redirect-io* t)
and that causes trouble in combination with the recent
SWANK-LOADER::INIT changes.

Dumping a core file with *globally-redirect-io* worked before the new
SWANK-LOADER::INIT was introduced, and it still worked for the brief
time period where swank.asd was still unchanged.

The problem occurs since rev 1.6 of swank.asd, which runs
SWANK-LOADER::INIT during compilation, and hence before saving the core
file.

Reverting rev 1.6 fixes things for me.  Not sure what the -right-
solution is though.



Thanks for the help in debugging this,
d.
