Hi, 

It looks like cmucl guys changed the funcion CL::%TOP-LEVEL which 
is called at start-up time to get the lisp prompt.  The culprit
is in the file save.lisp.  Search for the string CL::%TOP-LEVEL

The thing to fix this is to replace the call to cl::%top-level with
the call to the new function that produces the lisp prompt.  However,
I don't know what this function is, I don't have cmucl-19a and I don't
have a linux available to install it on.  

I hope this helps.

Ah, thanks for the hint!  Yes, in cmucl-19a %top-level is in the LISP
package, not the CL package.

Could you change that and see if that works?  Although I've compiled
matlisp with cmucl 19a, I never save a core with matlisp, so I never
noticed this problem.

Sorry about that!
