So I think I can probably get this into SBCL 0.7.13 (which will be released on Sunday, all being well) by claiming it's a bugfix for my very old standaloneize-file hack.

* (require :sb-executable)
NIL
* (with-open-file (o "test1.lisp" :direction :output) (format o "(princ \"hello world\")"))
NIL
* (compile-file "test1")
; compiling file "/home/dan/test1.lisp" (written 21 FEB 2003 07:04:41 PM):
; compiling top level form: 

; /home/dan/test1.fasl written
; compilation finished in 0:00:00

#P"/home/dan/test1.fasl"
NIL
NIL
* (sb-executable:make-executable "hello" *)
T
0

and then in the shell:

:; ./hello
hello world:; 
:; time ./hello
hello world
real    0m0.089s
user    0m0.060s
sys     0m0.020s

Yes, that bold green thing really is my shell prompt. The point is that I can select commands by triple-clicking them and then paste them into any other xterm.
