Yes, it is a Gentoo thing.  I received this reply from the 
Gentoo maintainer:

"There is no ~/.slime FASL cache because the Gentoo ports are 
created to use the general cache in /var/cache/common-lisp-controller.
If you are using SBCL, try removing old FASLs from there using 
this command: 

   "rm -rf /var/cache/common-lisp-controller/<your-username>/sbcl/*"

Unfortunately, after executing this command slime still hangs 
exactly as before.  

Any ideas?
