shka_: If building from source still requires the more recent glibc version, it won't help to build from source. Hence my question.

beach: when SBCL is compiled from source it will use (and in some cases be tied to) the glibc version of the system it is being compiled on. that is the reason why the pre-compiled binaries only work with certain ranges of glibc versions in the first place. because Xof has to choose a target glibc version that is recent enough to not be insecure

Apparently the most dangerous predator in Germany is the tick; wild boars are of course not predators, but definitely dangerous to encounter.

glibc compat works so that (for the most part) applications compiled against an older glibc will work with any newer glibc, but an application built against a newer glibc will not work with any older glibc.

scymtym: Thanks. I will re-install my working version of SBCL and use it to compile the latest version.

Problem fixed. Sourceforge is still unavailable, but I happened to have the sources for 2.0.1 around, so I used 1.5.3 to build 2.0.1 and I can now run the boot procedure again.

alandipert: I don't see anything wrong with your scheme. But then, tree shaking is not something that I have given much thought. SICL needs the compiler to create things like effective methods and discriminating functions, and the compiler would probably suck in most of the rest of the system as well, so I don't think a tree shaker would be of much use for SICL.
