While tracking down an emacs problem, I noticed the following while compiling emacs:
Dumping under names emacs and emacs-21.3.1 715504 pure bytes used ./emacs -q -batch -f list-load-path-shadows This site has duplicate Lisp libraries with the same name. If a locally-installed Lisp library overrides a library in the Emacs release, that can cause trouble, and you should probably remove the locally-installed version unless you know what you are doing.
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/tree-widget hides /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/slime/tree-widget

We use Emacs21's tree-widget.el library and we have bundled it with SLIME so that it will be available under other Emacsen. The warning here is saying that you have two tree-widget.el's and Emacs's own one is taking precedence over SLIME's copy.
I'm not sure if there is a better way to handle this.

Actually, that's what I thought too when I posted, but reading it now shows that the second copy is in site-lisp (which only holds subdirs.el with a new emacs install). Tree-widget seems to have gotten into site-lisp back when I used the gentoo emerge installation for clisp (since removed). Diff shows the two copies indentical, so I will leave the slime copy and rm the site-lisp copy.
Thanks again for a great IDE, I'm at the point now where if I cannot get slime working (MSwindows needs different tricks), I won't use the lisp implementation.

If you can't get SLIME to work on Windows let the list know, maybe we can help. I'm using SLIME with the Win32 versions of LispWorks and AllegroCL and it works fine for me.
Cheers, Edi.

I think the best help would be to update the documentation for the Windows special cases. I finally got AllegroCL working about the same time as I sent the above, so I'm only missing Corman and ECL.
