Yes, you do have to do this at compile time. I have a patch for SBCL
which changes the fasl-type to "faslmt" for the my Debian sbcl-mt
package, but it has to be applied at compile time.

I use a technique[1] which stores the fasls in a subdirectory of the
source files named ".bin/<impl-name>". This keeps out fasls of
conflicting types. I even store separately fasls for different
incompatible versions of a Lisp implementations.
