I have recently discovered that Windows now has SBCL releases. I just about fell out of my chair -- the day is nigh!

When I try to fire up CVS head SLIME, I get this:

; loading #P"c:\lisp\slime\swank-loader.lisp"

debugger invoked on a UNDEFINED-FUNCTION: The function SB-UNIX:UNIX-GETUID is undefined.

Type HELP for debugger help, or (SB-EXT:QUIT) to exit from SBCL.

restarts (invokable by number or by possibly-abbreviated name): 0: [ABORT] Exit debugger, returning to top level.

(SB-KERNEL::UNDEFINED-FUN-ERROR-HANDLER #<unavailable argument> #.(SB-SYS:INT-SAP #X0022F3C4) #<SB-ALIEN-INTERNALS:ALIEN-VALUE :SAP #X0022F0CC :TYPE (* (SB-ALIEN:STRUCT

SB-VM::OS-CONTEXT-T-STRUCT))> (14)) 0]

Being somewhat enamored, I'd like to help...

* (apropos 'uid)

UID :SB-FLUID (bound) SB-UNIX:ST-UID SB-UNIX:UNIX-GETUID SB-UNIX:SETUIDEXEC SB-UNIX:UID-HOMEDIR SB-UNIX:UID-USERNAME SB-UNIX:UNIX-UID SB-UNIX:S-ISUID SB-UNIX:UID-T

* (describe 'sb-unix:unix-uid)

SB-UNIX:UNIX-UID is an external symbol in #<PACKAGE "SB-UNIX">. It names a type specifier.

The type is there, but not the function to generate instances of it. Who's working on this, where's the code, and what can I do to help?
