It's a nice theory.  However, on my emacs, 

I get:

M-x slime-run-tests

Failed on 24 of 19 tests.
byte-code: Symbol's function definition is void: hide-body

[I discovered that that's because I seem to use NOUTLINE,
instead of regular OUTLINE.  I'll try to use `emacs -q'
to do my slime hacking from now on.]
I'm using cmucl 18e to bootstrap my way into all this.

Current results are:
    Failed on 5 of 19 tests.

Note that to start all this, I have to first load slime,
do M-x slime;
I get an error in cmucl:
    ; Compilation unit aborted.
    ;   2 notes

    ; Compilation aborted after 0:00:01.
    ;; Loading #p"/home/ap/Lisp/slime/swank-cmucl.lisp".

Continuing:

And manually starting the server

    * (swank:start-server)

    ;; Swank ready.

lets me run the tests.

Enough for tonight...

Cheers.
