[CM] cm tries to recompile rt.lisp on startup?

[Bill Sack]

hello rick,
i deleted the rt.x86f and .lisp files - then re-compiled cm

here are the times for the files:
[root at t0ast cm]# ls -l bin/cmucl_19c_linux-i686/rt.*
-rw-r--r--  1 root 10766 10240 Aug  8 21:39 bin/cmucl_19c_linux-i686/rt.x86f

[root at t0ast cm]# ls -l src/rt.*
-rw-r--r--  1 root  10766 1736 Aug  8 21:39 src/rt.lisp
-rw-r--r--  1 32593 10766 1559 Jun  1 03:33 src/rt.scm

here is the error message while loading cm/slime ['M-x cm' as reg user]:
Error in function LISP::DO-OLD-RENAME:
   File "/usr/local/lisp/cm/bin/cmucl_19c_linux-i686/rt.x86f" is not

whichever of these options i try, the connection to slime is never made.

thanks for the tip re: starting cm w/out slime.
