    (fwd)

Hi

just by very quick inspection, it looks like the problem is the dot in the
filename.  Obviously the new rules forced by CMUCL (which, I believe, are
correct) do not work well with the file names you are using.

I'll have to look exactly where things are generated, but, I wouldn't be
surprised if you stumbled on a similar problem with CMUCL regardless of
MK:DEFSYSTEM.

Cheers

Marco
