Hi,

I think this was my fault (I introduced a problem into SBCL while
fixing a different bug): is this method inside an (eval-when
(:compile-toplevel :load-toplevel) ...)  form?  If so, could you try
sbcl-1.0.8?  (A simple workaround for your sources would be to split
the definition into two parts)

The SBCL NEWS entry relating to the bug I introduced and fixed is as
follows:

  * bug fix: DEFMETHOD forms with CALL-NEXT-METHOD in the method body,
    in EVAL-WHEN forms with both :COMPILE-TOPLEVEL and :LOAD-TOPLEVEL
    situations requested, are once again file-compileable.  (reported
    by Sascha Wilde)

Cheers,

Christophe
