Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be as simple as that.  Or maybe I am still
confused, because apparently I have a bug in the zip-cache used by our falls so
I end up calling SYS:CLEAR-ZIP-CACHE.

Anyways, I have made [some progress][1] on this, but even with this patch we
still fail when loading a fasl the current package doesn't (use :cl) if the
source file doesn’t have an explicit :IN-PACKAGE.  The failing test works in
SBCL/CCL so there is definitely something wonky in our loader implementation.
