I'll be using slime 2.0 with sbcl-0.9.16, on FreeBSD just fine for awhile, when I start getting funny errors, e.g.

CL-USER> (compile-file "myfile.lisp")

Throws me into the debugger with:

The function compile-file is undefined. [Condition of type UNDEFINED-FUNCTION]

Note the case of "compile-file" in the error message in contrast to UNDEFINED-FUNCTION.

You have code somewhere that sets readtable-case to :preserve or :downcase.
