Hmm, very strange.  Ok, so the basics - I just pulled into a new dir
http://theclapp.org/repos/ecl-slime/   (18 patches)
http://theclapp.org/repos/vim70+async+ecl/ (13 patches)
it might also be a good idea to pull
http://theclapp.org/repos/ecl-repl/

So the first oddity is, where did you get 35 patches from?  The older
Vim repo looks to potentially have that many - you need to get the
vim70+async+ecl repo.

In my .vimrc I source ecl-repl, which might possibly be required for
ECL Slime, but I am pretty sure it is not.

Larry, any thoughts?

Cheers
