I've recently noticed that when I do a ,load-system and Emacs offers to save modified files, it complains about the files being locked by another process and asking if I want to steal the lock etc. However the PID it gives is in fact my Emacs process. So I wonder if SLIME is doing something funny under the covers--I can't imagine what but I finally correlated this with usin ,load-system so I'm hoping someone here might just know what's going on.
Me too, and I hadn't even noticed that this misbehaviour involved slime, I thought my UNIX box was misconfigured! I'm using Emacs-21.3 with slime-1.2.1 on Ubuntu/Hoary/Debian Linux-686.
I want to test slime with clisp-native-win32 as well, but I fear I'll have to wait until I have resources to build a new win32-clisp, because the one I have there may be too old.
