Ok, I spot it. I'm trying to solve it.

For your request for a backtrace. You have to use the main-unprotected
function. Start a lisp, load clfswm with asdf and then start clfswm with
main-unprotected instead of main.

Ok. Can you send the patch you want to be applied?

Yes this is a way. I haven't test it in stumpwm and it seems there is
some code related to stumpwm (for example (in-package :stumpwm)).

You can also look at some independent systray project.
