Sorry, no fix from me. I just wanted to report that I never could get SBCL
running on Xenish 64Bit boxes. I was actually able to _freeze_ the boxes
by trying to compile sbcl ... (which I consider a major bug in Xen since
no userspace app. should be able to bring the box to a halt).
Sorry, I can't provide too much debugging info for this since a) the box
just freezes and  b) those are production machines ....
