Got my Mac back from being repaired yesterday, and tried to update my SLIME. Compiling today's CVS with sbcl-0.8.8 dies when it catches a SIGBUS when compiling swank.lisp. I'll try cvs time-travel between April 9 and today sometime over the next week, if no one gets to it first, but if anyone has time, this is a heads-up.
SLIME doesn't work well with SBCL/OSX. The standard advice is: set swank:*communication-style* to :fd-handler and swank::*sldb-initial-frames* to 1.
Hmm, it had been working for me with the April 9 cvs, and a few before that. It gets the sigbus when SBCL is compiling the swank code, before it's connected, so I doubt it's a communication-style issue. Quite possibly an SBCL bug, though.
