new problem installing cl-http

ok i was doing some other stuff when i discovered that clc wasnt 
getting loaded and that i had no idea what defsystem i was using. i 
fixed my site-init and now mk-defsystem is getting loaded. however it 
now results in different error messages.

; Loading #p"/usr/home/chris/cl-http/cmucl/start.lisp".
;; Loading #p"/usr/home/chris/cl-http/cmucl/translations.lisp".
;; Loading #p"/usr/home/chris/cl-http/cmucl/server/sysdcl.lisp".

In: DEFSYSTEM CL-HTTP
  ("cmucl;server;cmucl-patch" "mcl;server;resources" "server;package"
   "cmucl;server;package.lisp" "smtp;package.lisp" ...)
Error: Illegal function call.


Warning: This variable is undefined:
  CL-HTTP


Warning: This function is undefined:
  DEFSYSTEM

Error in KERNEL:%COERCE-TO-FUNCTION:  the function DEFSYSTEM is 
undefined.

any thoughts on whats causing this? has anyone got cl-http to run on 
freebsd-4.5rc/cmucl and is willing to tell me how they did it?

sincerly,
chris moline
