This looks like COMPILE-FILE-PATHNAME is calling 
(COMPILE-FILE ... :ONLY-PATH t).

I.e. the delivered app not only misses COMPILE-FILE but also that
COMPILE-FILE-PATHNAME.   I guess the Lispworks people didn't intend
that.

You can work around that problem by customizing swank:*find-module*.
Set it to a function which doesn't need COMPILE-FILE-PATHNAME.
