Attach is my *slime-events* buffer, yeap seems like it has something to do with parse-cygwin-filename.

Anyone else has any idea what to do?

I can only say that

(swank-backend::parse-cygwin-filename "/home/stephen/test.lisp")

works just fine with CLISP 2.48 on Linux. I don't see why it wouldn't work on Windows.

I have this same problem with clisp 2.46 on cygwin.  I traced it to `regexp:match' in `parse-cygwin-filename'. I took it up on clisp-list mailing list (subject: regexp:match returns with `VALUES: too many values' error).  It turned out to be a bug in clisp - regexp:match would return nothing, not even nil in case of no matches.  That was supposed to be fixed in a later release of clisp. I have not tried installing 2.48 yet  - not sure if it has been compiled on cygwin. Mirko
