[CM] fun with CM + Linux

[Rick Taube]

if you dont save a cm image then you have to set the package and the read
table by hand:

(in-package :cm)
(setf *readtable* *cm-readtable*)

that should do it. of course you will also have to load your cminit.lisp by
hand if you want that active as well.

(load "/whatever/cminit.lisp")

but you should track down what the problem is in the saved imag,. im sure
its fixable somehow-- maybe the cmu man page will say something useful
