Slime developers, This is driving me nuts. I get this error trying to start slime+openmcl (suppose I should say ccl, but it seems Corman Lisp already claimed ccl on Windows...) on my Windows XP 32-bit system. The crazy thing is that I have another Windows XP 32-bit system that is very similar and slime+openmcl works just fine. Below is a dump from my *inferior-lisp* buffer. The error happens just after slime sends a :swank-connection message to the swank server, I think. I'm not knowledgeable enough in either system to know if this is an issue with openmcl or slime. Since I can get slime+openmcl to work on another windows system, I think it must be something that I've done (i.e. something in the configuration of the machine that is bonking socket communication). Unfortunately the error #22 during write doesn't mean to much to me so I am unsure where to begin to debug. Any suggestions greatly appreaciated.
