It seems to me that StumpWM broke somehow, for some reason.  I can
confirm there was a version change:

-sbcl-stumpwm <at> 18.05:out        /gnu/store/i0picr2xr2aq2a52nsaw67nvar1r3khw-sbcl-stumpwm-18.05
+sbcl-stumpwm <at> 18.11:out        /gnu/store/6h2iln76dx8pxdp1hsaqb1yncm8viczj-sbcl-stumpwm-18.11

I am not sure if this is the cause or something else.  At any rate, when
I try to run commands such as "gnew" (the command to make a new
group/workstation) I get back:

  Error In Command 'gnew': invalid number of arguments: 2

I though I'd try running the command manually and check the error, but
this also happens with eval!  Some other commands are not affected.

(I can try re-enabling the live REPL in StumpWM to play around with it,
but I currently have it off because they have the same live hacking
vulnerability in SBCL/SLIME that we had in Guile/Geiser some time ago.)

Hey everybody,

Evan Straw and I removed this patch in
9beec2173f9243456b6aca470acd926d0dcf9b45 with an upgrade to StumpWM
19.11 which fixes this issue.
As such I am closing this bug.

Let me know if 19.11 is working for you all, though!
