This doesn't matter for flexi-streams and other libs, but cl-store has a few DECLAREs. I don't know exactly when a type declaration is an assertion in ABCL, but at least it is for a stream with nonzero safety.
This is a long-standing architectural issue that we are finally within sight of fixing in the abcl-1.2.0 release cycle as we can benefit from the implementation of MOP to re-root the inheritance hierarchy when the GRAY streams are loaded. From what I can tell, this problem does mess up part of FLEXI-STREAMS, and leads directly to the inability to run the tests for Hunchentoot to competition.
[A long time ago, Ville collecting some notes on how to go about this exist in the doc tree][streams].
