A note on slime-setup ordering.  I recently noticed that slime- 
selector 'r' quit taking me to the REPL and instead started taking me  
to the *inferior-lisp* buffer.  The reason turned out to be the  
ordering of the slime-setup in my .emacs:
This:
	(slime-setup '(slime-fancy slime-asdf inferior-slime))
...does not work, whereas this:
	(slime-setup '(inferior-slime slime-fancy slime-asdf))
works correctly.  (I guess I introduced this a while back and just  
never noticed.)
The reason is that inferior-slime and slime-repl (loaded via slime- 
fancy) are mutually exclusive with respect to their def-slime-selector- 
method ?r definitions:
(def-slime-selector-method ?r				-- contrib/inferior-lisp.el
    "SLIME Read-Eval-Print-Loop."
    (inferior-slime-switch-to-repl-buffer)))
(def-slime-selector-method ?r				-- contrib/slime-repl.el
  "SLIME Read-Eval-Print-Loop."
  (slime-output-buffer))
However neither slime-fancy (nor just slime-repl) will load without  
inferior-slime.  Either loses with:
  Symbol's value as variable is void: inferior-slime-mode-map
...and so the natural tendency is to tack on inferior-slime to the end  
of your slime-setup which results in this bug.  Please advise if  
there's a better way do this.
Thanks,
Derrell
PS,
I'm glad you backed out the reversed restart numbering change.  Please  
don't do that.
