Oops.  I didn't have an up-to-date version.

I think the error is caused by trying to dump objects of type FUNCTION
into fasl files.

In sys.lisp, if comment out the lines:

#+cmu ; permit #S(struct) in source code
(defmethod make-load-form ((self structure-object) &optional environment)
  (make-load-form-saving-slots self :environment environment))

port.lisp will compile again.  Don't know if the result works or not.

This issue was discussed on cmucl-imp a month or two ago.
