[itsdb] Automated install [incr tsdb()] not loading

[Emily M. Bender]

Follow up:  Bob New has localized the problem with this line
in tsdb.system:

#+(and :unix :clim (version>= 8 1))
(load 
 (compile-file (make-pathname :directory general-dir :name "clim")))

And I can also reproduce this problem.

Commenting that out lets it get somewhat further, before it
gets stuck again:

; Loading /home/ebender/delphin/lkb/src/general/defsystem.lisp
; Loading /home/ebender/delphin/lkb/src/general/loadup.lisp
;   Loading /home/ebender/delphin/lkb/src/general/allegro-patches.lisp
;   Loading /home/ebender/delphin/lkb/src/general/loadup-library.lisp
; Loading /home/ebender/delphin/lkb/src/systems/tsdb.system
; Loading /home/ebender/delphin/lkb/src/systems/pvm.system
; Foreign loading /home/ebender/delphin/lkb/src/pvm/linux.x86.32/pvm.so.

With the same error.
