Poking around the source files I see SPAWN implemented, but am not sure if SBCL just isn't finding it or what. I'm using the most recent SBCL available in Ubuntu's repositories (1.0.6) with Emacs 22.1.1. I just checked out Slime from CVS after uninstalling the Slime package for Ubuntu (I grabbed the CVS version to see if the connection issue I'm having is with S-XML-RPC or Slime). Any ideas?
At a guess the Ubuntu SBCL has swank preloaded, which causes trouble. You (or Ubuntu) also seem to have specified communication style :SPAWN somewhere, but apparently the SBCL you have is not built with threads.
Using upstream SBCL should fix this -- or both Ubuntu Slime and SBCL.
