Franz's mlisp is a case-sensitive "modern" common lisp.  In fi-stella,
there are references to the common-lisp package using the nickname "CL",
but in mlisp, the proper nickname is "cl".  Actually, if you want to be
agnostic, then you should use #:cl, which will give you the right case
for any image.

Anyway, having fi-stella loaded will bust an mlisp session.

If one's only CL work is with PowerLoom, that might be fine, but for
those of us with multiple CL-based projects, just adding fi-stella to
one's lisp-mode-hook will be A Bad Idea.

Best,
Robert
