New test: I updated all dists with quicklisp which reinstalled cl-ppcre 
and slime. I started a fresh emacs and Slime (9/2013) and ran the 
following test1.lisp (using asdf:load-system instead of require).

;; (require "cl-ppcre")
(asdf:load-system "cl-ppcre")
(describe 'cl-ppcre:regex-apropos)

After compiling the fresh cl-ppcre code it ran and gave me the following:

; compiling file "/home/jcunningham/slime/test1.lisp" (written 30 OCT 
2013 01:10:24 PM):

; /home/jcunningham/slime/test1.fasl written
; compilation finished in 0:00:00.003
CL-PPCRE:REGEX-APROPOS
   [symbol]

REGEX-APROPOS names a compiled function:
   Lambda-list: (REGEX &OPTIONAL PACKAGES &KEY (CASE-INSENSITIVE T))
   Derived type: (FUNCTION (T &OPTIONAL T &KEY (:CASE-INSENSITIVE T))
                  (VALUES &OPTIONAL))
   Documentation:
     Similar to the standard function APROPOS but returns a list of all
     symbols which match the regular expression REGEX.  If CASE-INSENSITIVE
     is true and REGEX isn't already a scanner, a case-insensitive scanner
     is used.
*Source file: /home/jcunningham/slime/test1.lisp**
*

Now it's switched its "source" for cl-ppcre to the test file.
