I'm not a heavy SLIME user, but the latest SLIME CVS checkout has some
issues for me.

I needed to change swank-loader.lisp to check each package before
deleting it:

> (eval-when (:compile-toplevel :load-toplevel :execute)
>   (when (find-package :swank)
>     (delete-package :swank))
>   (when (find-package :swank-io-package)
>     (delete-package :swank-io-package))
>   (when (find-package :swank-backend)
>     (delete-package :swank-backend)))

Also, swank-clisp.lisp has not kept pace with recent changes to CLISP
internals (which it uses).  There are no sys::frame-up-1 and
sys::frame-down-1 functions.  I've not looked into this, so if a
CLISP/SLIME user has a fix please share.  I note to SLIME maintains is
also in order.
