Emacs 23 doesn't like variable named .old-prompt. in contrib/slime-repl.el -- it borks with: Debugger entered--Lisp error: (invalid-read-syntax ". in wrong context") load-internal("slime-repl" nil t nil undecided)
Renaming to %old-prompt% works. Is it dynamic binding forcing us to have ugly variable names? Sigh.

Actually, it was XEmacs 21.4 (patch 21) "Educational Television" [Lucid] (x86_64-linux-gnu, Mule) with various libraries loaded.

I've seen the same behaviour with XEmacs 21.5b28...

In case the fix is not obvious, I'm attaching a patch. Can any kind soul apply it so that SLIME should be xemacs-friendly again?
