FWIW, I do not show any "streamertest" in my current cells source. I can 
guarantee you this, the "stream" stuff in Cells is only partially 
implemented and not used by anything else in Cells (or any application 
code, I wager, since it never got finished). So just comment out as 
necessary. :)

That is puzzling. Does CLisp not put :clisp on *features*? If it 
does,... or by "#clisp part" do you mean you had to knock out the 
conditional "#+clisp" /and/ the following form? That would make sense, 
since CLisp MOP has come a long way since I wrote that code. Sounds like 
that can be removed, as you did.
