[ab] lispbuilder with win32 sbcl 1.0 part 2, making a deliverable exe

I'm not having much luck producing a small working standalone EXE with
Lispworks Pro.  A level 0 or 1 exe works fine but it is 21 megs.
Level 2 and above does not work.  A level 5 EXE is 3 megs.  The
treeshaking process seems to be removing packages that are needed  to
run.  There are a lot of options for the DELIVER function, so I'll
play around with those a bit more to see if I can get it working.
