I can confirm that compilation fails using SBCL 1.0.16 on a Ubuntu 7.10 system with a:
"has no suitable method for STREAM-ELEMENT-TYPE, and so has fallen through to this method...."
error that crashes the whole session. You can reproduce this behaviour with the following:
(defclass foo (standard-class) ()) (defclass bar () () (:metaclass foo))
Thanks for the confirmation. Actually I hoped this would not occur in the latest version, as Nikodemus Siivola said on 2008-01-15, in reply to what seems a very similar issue reported by Pascal Costanza: "This seems to have been fixed at some point during the last 10 months": < http://article.gmane.org/gmane.lisp.steel-bank.devel/10603> Custom metaclasses are crucial for CLPython. Hopefully someone feels inclined to fix this SBCL issue. - Willem
