[armedbear-devel] less-reflection merge borks SLIME on trunk
Unfortunately, the 'less-reflection' merge to trunk as of r12742 causes SLIME to fail to compile 'swank-abcl.lisp' as seen in the attached stack trace. To observe this outside of Emacs, obtain a [CVS HEAD snapshot of SLIME][1], start ABCL, point *DEFAULT-PATHNAME-DEFAULTS* to the location of 'swank.asd', then issue CL-USER> (asdf:load-system :asdf) [1]: http://common-lisp.net/project/slime/snapshots/slime-current.tgz -- "A screaming comes across the sky. It has happened before, but there is nothing to compare to it now."

Strange. When I did the merge I had to change one thing from the branch: I had to bind *load-truename* to NIL or readFunctionBytes would crash when loading compiled stuff. Now it appears that that change breaks things and removing it makes them work again! Maybe I inadvertently tested a hybrid situation when merging the branch? Anyway, I removed that change: let me know if it now works for you. Bye, Alessio

Yes, r12754 restores SLIME. Thanks, Mark -- "A screaming comes across the sky. It has happened before, but there is nothing to compare to it now."
