Reopen with 'equery b /usr/lib64/sbcl/sbcl.core' output. Thanks.
No package claimed to own the file. Unfortunately, I had unmerged the previous copy of sbcl and this seemed to leave /usr/lib64/sbcl/sbcl.core behind. I just now remerged and unmerged sbcl again but this time there is no /usr/lib64/sbcl/sbcl.core left.
