I get a startup failure that I think is like yours, but it occurs randomly. About 1/12 times when I start slime for Lispworks. I don't have "geben" loaded or anything. I think there is a race condition somewhere.
On Linux I don't see such a problem. I don't know the state of Aqua Emacs but GNU Emacs had this problem when opening a connection: the code would close and reconnect if a signal was received at a bad moment. If that's the case then you should see in the *inferior-lisp* buffer that Emacs closed the connection. If the *inferior-lisp* contains nothing unusual then please provide a backtrace (with the latest SLIME version and debug-on-error enabled).
