[mac os x 10.3 / emacs 21.3.50.1 (carbon) / cvs slime / openmcl 0.14.1]
when slime-edit-fdefinition pops up a xref buffer for selecting a location, the xref keymap doesn't seem to be active.
for example, " " is bound to slime-space instead of slime-goto-xref. manually calling slime-goto-xref from the minibuffer does the right thing.
it did work at least a week or two ago. unfortunately i don't know enough about emacs keymaps to debug this one.
