I'm having some trouble byte-compiling slime.el v 1.408. The compielr fails because there is no (setf slime-inferior-process) defined. In fact, looking at the code, there seems to be some confusion as to whether slime-inferior-process is a simple variable, a pair of functions for associating a process id with a network connection, or even a member of a class or struct.

Hmmm.... this seems to happen because slime-inferior-process is defined via slime-def-connection-var somewhere after the first reference to it. Reordering these will probably solve the problem; I was able to compile the file by evaluating (defmacro slime-def-connection-var ...) and (slime-def-connection-var slime-inferior-process ...) before calling byte-recompile-directory.
For reference:
slime-def-connection-var is defined on line 1687; slime-inferior-process is defined on line 1754; slime-inferior-process is referenced on line 1341 and 1380 (i.e, before the definition)

Thanks for the detailed report. Should be fixed in the CVS version.
Helmut.
