I was successful in loading Portable Allegroserve into a 'virgin'
CMUCL image under RedHat Linux -- here's what I had to do (after
getting the code, of course).

1. Start CMUCL 

2. Load the Gray streams for CMUCL
   (load "library:subsystems/gray-streams-library")

3. Load the defsystem code (listed as "DEFSYSTEM Interim 3.2") from, I
think, the CLOCC project. I stored this locally in my directory.
   (load "defsystem.lisp")

4. Comment out the following lines from the Portable Allegroserve file
INSTALL.LISP:

;(unless (member :gray-streams *features*)
;  (mk:oos :cmucl-graystream :load))

5. Load INSTALL.LISP
   (load "INSTALL.LISP")


Thanks for all who responded.

Instead of commenting it out you can simply do a (push :gray-streams 
*features*) into your .cmucl-init.lisp
