COMPILE function fails

[Mariano Montone]

​http://clhs.lisp.se/Body/f_cmp.htm fails in the latest ABCL version:

This is what I get when I try to evaluate the example in CLHS:

(defun foo () "bar") => FOO

(compile 'foo)

Wrong number of arguments for #<FUNCTION {5236A94B}>.

[Condition of type PROGRAM-ERROR]

Restarts:

0: [RETRY] Retry SLIME REPL evaluation request.
1: [*ABORT] Return to SLIME's top level.
2: [ABORT] Abort thread.

I'm not using this directly, but some libraries like closer-mop, need
compile to work.

Fails here:

CL-USER> (lisp-implementation-type)
"Armed Bear Common Lisp"
CL-USER> (lisp-implementation-version)
"1.4.0-dev-svn-14713"
"OpenJDK_64-Bit_Server_VM-Oracle_Corporation-1.7.0_55-b14"
"amd64-Linux-3.5.0-17-generic"

It seems to work in some cases on ABCL 1.3.1, though.

CL-USER> (compile 'foo)
FOO
NIL
NIL

But something like this signals an error:

CL-USER> (compile nil '(lambda (x) x))
; Evaluation aborted on #<PROGRAM-ERROR {4C62C417}>.

With the same error above.

CL-USER> (lisp-implementation-version)
"1.3.1"
"OpenJDK_64-Bit_Server_VM-Oracle_Corporation-1.7.0_55-b14"
"amd64-Linux-3.5.0-17-generic"

As I noted in my email to armedbear-devel@, I cannot reproduce this in either abcl-1.3.1 nor SVN HEAD, and find this problem somewhat mysterious.

And the CLOSER-MOP test suite continues to pass its tests as far as I can tell.

Perhaps one can try invoking abcl directly with '--noinit' to factor out problems with initialization:

illin:~/work/illithid$ abcl --noinit --eval '(if (compile nil (quote (lambda (x) x))) (format t "Succeeded.") (format t "Failed."))'
Armed Bear Common Lisp 1.3.1
Java 1.8.0 Oracle Corporation
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM
Low-level initialization completed in 0.231 seconds.
Startup completed in 1.125 seconds.
Succeeded.
Type ":help" for a list of available commands.
CL-USER(1): 

I suppose this could be a problem with openjdk7 under Linux, but I would be surprised.

This works fine in a clean version of ABCL. The problem occurs after loading a couple of packages, so the problem may be in those packages, that may be rewriting things? I don't know...
