yes, lots of weird stuff can happen when you use slime.
one thing to try is configure slime to use some  communication style  
other than multiprocessesing. depending on your lisp/os thats its  
defaul choice and it seems to screw things up sometime when user code  
is also doing multiprocessing, as is certainly the case with rts and  
receive
