[This is unrelated to the CLISP problem.] SLIME uses fcntl(2) to enable SIGIO for the socket. The binding for fcntl is only available in newer SBCL versions (0.8.7.36 and above). I patched SLIME to use our own version of fcntl if the function doesn't exist it the sb-posix package. The CVS version of SLIME should now work with not so new SBCL versions, at least on Linux.
