I am attaching a patch which makes it work (if the patch about pathname presentations, that I sent earlier today, is also present).
Did you forget to attach the patch?
The downside is that CL pathnames are so intractable that the only good way I found to make this work was to use CL-FAD.
I hate pathnames. Even for something as seemingly trivial as Show Directory in the listener, they turned into an unpredictable, unportable mess. I vowed not to use them as the primary representation in the event I ever get around to adding serious shell-like features to the listener.
BTW, I think a more elegant solution might be made that would use satisfies to define the dir-pathname presentation-type more declaratively. But I couldn't figure out how to do it...
Good idea. '(and pathname (satisfies my-directory-p)) doesn't do it?
