It fixes the reported problem, and introduces another --- which isn't
CLC's fault anymore, but a SLIME/SBCL interaction (verified since
CMUCL and CLISP work, and SLIME/ECL reports that I need to upgrade
from 9.x to 10.x...)

(so I'm running this on an EEEPC netbook, so I'm i686 and not AMD
arch, so I'm a bit behind SBCL-wise).

Starting SLIME with SBCL gives me:


(progn (load "/usr/share/common-lisp/source/slime/swank-loader.lisp"
:verbose t) (funcall (read-from-string "swank-loader:init")) (funcall
(read-from-string "swank:start-server") "/tmp/slime.10621"
:coding-system "iso-latin-1-unix"))

This is SBCL 1.0.31.0.debian, an implementation of ANSI Common Lisp.

SO...  at this point, I M-x slime-abort-connection  and check a bit
and manually load within *inferior-lisp*

(load "/usr/share/common-lisp/source/slime/swank-sbcl.lisp")

and note that (list-all-packages)   shows many packages, but
SB-BSD-SOCKETS isn't one of them.  However, thanks to having
SBCL-source installed, I see that it could be there since it's
installed with the source install.

I think this is an SBCL issue, and I've got some bug reports to
consider filing in the right places.  Again, thanks to all for your
support, help, and assistance (and more importantly, for simply
reading this bug report).
