So you built 2.33.2 yourself under cygwin? I assume that such a binary will only run on machines that have cygwin installed, right? Is there any chance you could download the win32 binary from Sourceforge and let me know if that works for you?
Ok, done that and also tried a mingw build. Summary: clisp cvs head cygwin works with slime cvs head clisp cvs head mingw (no need for cygwin) works with slime cvs head clisp released version for windows from sourceforge does not work (starts up, loads slime but does not connect)
