I'm not sure; I asked on #lisp, and someone said that they thought
that antifuchs was working on it.  (I assumed that this meant "working
on the McCLIM system definition, but I'm not sure of that.)

I think that the problem's been around for a while; I saw a message
from this past May on (IIRC) a McCLIM mail archive.  It'd probably
be worth finding (and searching) that archive to see if there's
a recommended workaround.
