I've got

  (mp:initialize-multiprocessing)

at the end of my ~/.lispworks file.  But I don't understand how
something I describe in the TBNL docs can cause LW startup to fail.  I
was assuming that you've already started your Lisp before you load
Araneida and TBNL.  What exactly do you mean?

You should be able to add/remove handlers just by modifying
*DISPATCH-TABLE*, no need to stop or restart anything.

Cheers,
