Re: Bug loading this file...

It looks like one of the "internal compiler changes that wasn't supposed to
be user-visible" in 0.12.1 is user-visible ...

As a workaround (until that's fixed), you can get a lot farther by disabling
*SAVE-LOCAL-SYMBOLS* (it's set to T in an EVAL-WHEN near the top of the file).

It's possible that fixing the *SAVE-LOCAL-SYMBOLS* mechanism will involve
disabling it for a release or two, and that it may behave a bit differently
in the future than it has traditionally (e.g., may only take effect under
certain compilation policies.)
