Hi everyone,

I'd found out about the issues around SBCL, SLIME and Windows. I thought perhaps I could just update my SLIME and perhaps some kind soul would have made the pain go away :).

So yesterday I updated to the latest cvs version, deleted my ~/.slime/fasl/ directory, and started up SLIME. SLIME told me all the files it was recompiling, and gave me a REPL. Great.

Then I tried to evaluate (+ 1 2), and got... nothing. Curious, I hit M-X slime again, said "no" to starting up another inferior-lisp, and SLIME started vomiting forth enormous amounts of stuff. The attachment shows the first few hundred lines of output.

The second connection attempt starts at line 234, with this:

CL-USER> (+ 1 2) (progn (load "c:/bin/emacs/site-lisp/slime/swank-loader.lisp" :verbose t) (funcall (read-from-string "swank-loader:init")) (funcall (read-from-string "swank:start-server") "c:/DOCUME~1/FrankS/LOCALS~1/Temp/slime.2444" :coding-system "iso-latin-1-unix"))

;; swank:close-connection: end of file on #<SB-SYS:FD-STREAM for "a socket" {247C9DA9}>

Any idea what's going on?

I figure that my system _used_ to be correctly set up, because it just worked (modulo the HANDLE-LISTEN issue).
