The ANSI specification for the IN-PACKAGE syntax dictates that
the argument must be a string, not a symbol. SBCL gives a fatal
error on that. Furthermore, the specification also says that the
packages LISP, USER and SYSTEM are no longer required for a
conforming implementation. Consequently, it is non-portable (and a
potential source of errors) to say something like
(in-package 'BOOTTRAN :USE '(LISP USER SYSTEM))
SBCL gives a fatal error.
I stumbled over those while I was playing with the new configuration
setting for building src/boot with SBCL -- I have not tried ECL yet.
I'm working on a patch.
