When compiling a code snippet with C-c C-c, I get the following error in SLIME:

It looks like something added text properties to the string returned by buffer-name. Do you use a package like iswitch-buffer that, unintentionally, adds text properties to buffer names?
I am not using iswitch-buffer, but I don't really know much about text properties to allow me to figure out what is adding them, it looks like something triggered by SLIME. If I start emacs-snapshot, open a .lisp file and eval (buffer-name), I get something like "foo.lisp". Then, if I start SLIME (ie an inferior lisp), and eval (buffer-name) in the lisp buffer, I get something like #("foo.lisp" 0 8 (buffer-name #0 buffer #<buffer foo.lisp> font-lock-face buffer-menu-buffer mouse-face highlight help-echo "mouse-2: select this buffer")) Apparently SLIME is changing something. Suggestions on how I could find what it is would be appreciated, I can reproduce this with a minimal SLIME setup, but only with the latest emacs snapshot. The relevant part of *Messages* is "foo.lisp" Polling "/tmp/slime.13780".. (Abort with `M-x slime-abort-connection'.) [6 times] Connecting to Swank on port 52256.. [2 times] Connected. Lemonodor-fame is but a hack away! Quit #("foo.lisp" 0 8 (buffer-name #0 buffer #<buffer foo.lisp> font-lock-face buffer-menu-buffer mouse-face highlight help-echo "mouse-2: select this buffer)) *slime-events* is at http://paste.lisp.org/+2NVM .
