I fixed this.
Fascinating bug.
It turned out that

./clisp -C -E UTF-8 -Emisc 1:1 -q -norc -i tests/tests -x \
 '(run-some-tests :dirlist (list "syscalls/") :srcdir "../modules/" :outdir "./")'

failed while

./clisp -E 1:1 -q -norc -i tests/tests -x \
 '(run-test "../modules/syscalls/test" :logname "syscalls/test")'

worked, because RUN-SOME-TESTS bound *MERGE-PATHNAMES-ANSI* to T.

Thanks.
