Interesting, if you run in an sbcl console without slime:
(defclass foo (standard-class) ())
(defclass bar () () (:metaclass foo))
you get a different error message:
debugger invoked on a SIMPLE-ERROR in thread #<THREAD "initial thread"
{A884551}>:
The class #<STANDARD-CLASS STANDARD-OBJECT> was specified as a
super-class of
the class #<FOO BAR>, but the meta-classes #<STANDARD-CLASS
STANDARD-CLASS>
and #<STANDARD-CLASS FOO> are incompatible. Define a method for
SB-MOP:VALIDATE-SUPERCLASS to avoid this error.
so thinking this may be some sort of slime/sbcl problem I decided to try
to asdf-install without slime. The compilation fails much earlier with:
; registering #<SYSTEM #:LW-COMPAT {A8F48F9}> as LW-COMPAT
WARNING: change in instance length of class SB-PRETTY:PRETTY-STREAM:
current length: 25
compile time length: 27
debugger invoked on a SIMPLE-ERROR in thread #<THREAD "initial thread"
{A884551}>:
The class SB-PRETTY:PRETTY-STREAM was not changed, and there's no
guarantee that
the loaded code (which expected another layout) will work.
This error also doesn't mean much to me.
