For me the solution was also something like this.  If this does not work,
maybe the following helps.  I also had problems because ilisp used some
site-wide initialization files which were compiled for an older Ilisp and
older CMUCL.  These existed because I once had installed Debian ilisp and
"apt-get remove ilisp" did not do its clean up properly.
