Very cool. I need to find some cycles to start working through your code.

One question:  do you expect version of SLIME categorically fail
completely with previous ABCL versions (i.e. those without
ABCL-INTROSPECT)?  Or were your able to special-case the new features in
swank-abcl.lisp?

I did a bit of special-casing, but for the new stacktrace - falls back to the old version if it isn't there (though current version (require)s abcl-introspect).
No special-casing for new record-source-location stuff.
I could see about making it work without abcl-introspect. IIRC there are only a couple of places that use it. 
But is it worth it, given that it will require the new version of ABCL for source-location?

btw, haven't updated https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/abcl/ -will do later
