I, too, was unable to do any testing before the release. I just updated my repository, wiped out the fasls, and tried to rebuild (this time from the asdf def, instead of system.lisp). I got a problem with package dependencies. Building mcclim/Looks/pixie.lisp got an error because the IMAGE package was undefined.
Here's the error message. I'll have a look to try to track down the bug whenever I can get any time.
Error: Package "IMAGE" not found. [file position = 36821] [condition type: READER-ERROR]
