Hi, when I try to start the version of slime in CVS tarfile from the website using M-x slime (with SBCL 1.0.2 on OS X/x86 as my CL implementation), I get the following rather intimidating error message:
=== begin scary thing
(progn (load "/Library/Application Support/Emacs/slime/slime/swank- loader.lisp" :verbose t) (funcall (read-from-string "swank:start- server") "/tmp/slime.7829" :coding-system "iso-latin-1-unix"))
This is SBCL 1.0.2, an implementation of ANSI Common Lisp. More information about SBCL is available at http://www.sbcl.org/.

=== end scary thing
I have no idea what's going on here. I do know that SLIME seems to be working fine with CLISP, though.
Many thanks, Matt
