Below are some hacks to get the ACL emacs lisp interface partially working for CMUCL. This really just allows multiple listeners to be started, there is no support for the LEP process so functionality is very limited. Eventually hemlock may be enhanced to provide similar functionality for CMUCL in a far more integrated manner.
