I haven't looked yet at it in details, but is there any upstream bug opened, maybe with a patch that can backported to SBCL-1.0.17? In that case the fix can be easily applied to the version already present in lenny and then the migration will be smoother. On the contrary, if backporting the fix is not so trivial, let's see if the RM accepts a new source upload for lenny. Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca
