[CM] linux, cmucl, cm cvs

[Rick Taube]

Sounds like its having a problem with the *cm-directory* lookup from 
*load-pathname* --  try settin that variable manually to see if that 
fixed the problem just to see what else can go wrong. there is also a 
*cm-bin-directory* set later in that file.

i think i read some posts on their mail list over the last few days 
that indicate that there is a problem in the snapshot about handling 
unix pathnames. i dont know if this is the issue or not. but since 
cm.asd iworks in every other lisp and even in the last version of cmucl 
i think it would be a candidate.
