I was trying to run portable-clblog, which uses araneida from SLIME, and the handler functions were never getting called and thus the HTTP client was waiting indefinitely for a response.
See http://paste.lisp.org/display/19166#3 for the code.
Turns out that it _does_ work if I run a standalone SBCL outside of Emacs and use (swank:create-server) and then use M-x slime-connect in Emacs. It only works if I start up the araneida listener outside of Emacs. If I do it from within slime, no go.
Interesting. Any ideas why?
