thanks, I have patched this.

this seems to be it: the interface repository contains a
LocalInterfaceDef, and the file clorb-ifr-base.lisp doesn't have a
definition for this (I can't remember when local interfaces were added
to CORBA, but it was quite a while ago).

I take it that clorb-ifr-base and ifr-idl are generated from the files
in the idl/ directory, using the new IDL parser? I tried to use
CORBA:IDL to generate lisp definitions for IDL files from ORBacus, but
the IDL parser also doesn't recognize local interfaces; it chokes on
the "local" bit of a definition like

,----
|    local interface Policy
|    {
|        readonly attribute PolicyType policy_type;
|        Policy copy();
|        void destroy();
|    };
`----

I guess I'll have to figure out how the parser is generated from the
IDL grammar.   

Thanks,
