Package locks have landed in the SBCL CVS, a 3783 line patch off my chest — so I can breathe again. Coming soon to anoncvs near you.
In other news, Christophe Rhodes had in my mind a brilliant idea for a single stepper for SBCL: make the compiler insert form that signal step-condition at appropriate places (at high debug settings only, of course), and implement the stepper as a handler for those conditions. Very very neat. See sbcl-devel archives for details, I'm too lazy to find the link right now.
