[Sbcl-bugs] Bug in require after dumping executable core image

[Michael L. <MichaelGLucy@Gmail.com>]

System (output of uname -a): Linux efreata 2.6.28-15-generic
#52-Ubuntu SMP Wed Sep 9 10:49:34 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
Sbcl version: 1.0.36

Problem:
(require 'asdf-install) works fine, but if I dump an executable core
image, launch it, and try from there it breaks.

Example of (require 'asdf-install) working fine normally:

zededarian@efreata:~/tst$ sbcl
