It seems that ,cd command from the REPL, which I think runs (swank:set-default-directory), does not work correctly with CLISP.

That's not a slime issue. Clisp doesn't change cwd when *default-pathname-defaults* is set:

(progn (setf *default-pathname-defaults* #"/") (list (cd (user-homedir-pathname)) (cd))) => #"/"

OK, thanks, and sorry for blaming the wrong guy. What do you suggest as a work-around? Well, I could use (EXT:CD) or perhaps always reset *default-pathname-defaults* to #P"" in some hook?
