sbcl 0.9.12 compilation problem

[hauer@…]

After I downloaded http://common-lisp.net/project/cl-markdown/cl-markdown_latest.tar.gz and stripped out cl-markdown-test.asd to abvoid the METASHELL dependcy problem and tried to install it using asdf-install on the tar.gz file like this: (asdf-install:install "/local/path/to/cl-markdown_latest.tar.gz")

I got the following compilation errors:

  This is probably a bug in SBCL itself. (Alternatively, SBCL might have been
  corrupted by bad user code, e.g. by an undefined Lisp operation like
  (FMAKUNBOUND 'COMPILE), or by stray pointers from alien code or from unsafe
  Lisp code; or there might be a bug in the OS or hardware that SBCL is running
  on.) If it seems to be a bug in SBCL itself, the maintainers would like to
  know about it. Bug reports are welcome on the SBCL mailing lists, which you
  can find at <http://sbcl.sourceforge.net/>.

SBCL didn't like the various &rest and &key lambda lists for make-contents-for-container. I think that this is an SBCL "buglet" but I also think that those lambda lists needed to be rationalized. Doing so made both SBCL and me happy.
