unchangeable "ext-formats:uni-data.bin", error starting lisp

When running Unicode CMUCL from the location where it is compiled,
it starts with an error saying it cannot find the unidata.bin file.
Usually one can set the search-list translations in ~/.cmucl-init.lisp,
but this error happens even before that, so the only locations CMUCL can
look for are the hardcoded locations.

How can one supress the error, or specify the location during startup,
so one can start `lisp -noinit' without throwing this error (when the
"unidata.bin" file is not where the packaged/installed CMUCL expects to
find it installed)


$ linux-x86/lisp/lisp
