I didn't see this at first (clisp seemed to install and run ok) but when I tried
to run slime with clisp, it couldn't load swank and I found that
asdf:*central-registry* is just '(*DEFAULT-PATHNAME-DEFAULTS*) - so missing the
path to the swank system.

What version of dev-lisp/common-lisp-controller do you have installed?  Version
4.27 onwards is required because of that POSIX symbol change beginning with
CLISP 2.36.  The clisp-2.36 ebuild depends on
>=dev-lisp/common-lisp-controller-4.27.  The error you got is like the one I got
when I first tried porting clisp 2.36 using the older common-lisp-controller port.

Thanks for that Matthew. I had common-lisp-controller 4.15 originally
(clisp-2.36 didn't ask for it when I emerged it) but now I've emerged 4.27 and
all is well. In the ebuild for clisp-2.36, you might want to change 2.27 to 4.27
;-) 

Ugh.. sorry about that!
