I'm not sure.  I don't use the common lisp controller.  I'm running on an
Intel Mac, and I have all my packages installed in .sbcl/site and systems.

Is there another way to get arnesi to load swank?  Like I said, I'm
loading it from SLIME, so it's obviously there.

Are you loading arnesi via ASDF?  If so, you want your swank.asd (or at least 
a symlink to it) be visible on one of the paths in ASDF:*CENTRAL-REGISTRY*.  
I usually have one directory containing symlinks to all my .asd's, and I push
that onto the central registry, and everything works fine.

Thank you!  That solves the problem.  Perhaps the documentation should
have a note near the beginning that it is necessary to add a link to
swank.asd in the systems directory even if you have slime installed and
working.
