SBCL itself is probably working fine, but something in your
environment screws up SB-POSIX. Installing the SBCL you have just
built is OK, but if you install it as-is SB-POSIX will *not* be
installed along with it, which is not good as many things (like Slime)
depend on it. Assuming SB-POSIX build, but didn't pass its tests you
can trick install.sh to install it by doing

 touch contrib/sb-posix/test-passed

but it would be better to figure out what went wrong and fix it -- be
the problem in SBCL or with your setup.

If you run

 sh make-target-contrib.sh &> log

in the directory after the failed build, and then look for the actual
SB-POSIX failure in the log (either a build or a test failure), what
does it look like? If you can't locate it, you can zip the logfile and
send it to me, and I'll have a look.
