I'd hope that doing C-u - M-x slime acl8 would create a buffer named: *slime-repl acl8*. Instead it creates *slime-repl allegro*. And then if I create another connection using acl7 I get *slime-repl allegro<2>* which is not so helpful. I just spent a few minutes poking around trying to put back this feature but got lost--maybe someone who's been dealing with this code more recently can put it back.
I will not put it back because I think the code was too ugly for such a minor feature.
Hmmm, it doesn't seem like such a minor feature to me--if I'm actually using multiple Lisp's simultaneously and I can't tell which is which, that makes the whole multiple connections feature far less useful. But if it's not your itch to scratch that's fine. I guess I'll have to find a way to hack it in myself without disturbing the essential purity of the SLIME code.
