The problems with BUNDLE-OP were triaged to problems in ABCL's use of
:WILD-INFERIORS on directories referred to via symlinks. OS X symlinks
/private/tmp to /tmp which was why the problem was mysteriously not working
only on this platform.
This error was fixed when I [finished re-working DIRECTORY to default to
:RESOLVE-SYMLINKS as nil][r14624] which currently exists in abcl-1.3.0-dev.
If you wish to conditionalize on the fix, the form
(not (second (third (sys::arglist 'directory))))
should return T for versions of ABCL that work with BUNDLE-OP on OS X.
We supposedly releasing ‘abcl-1.3.0’ real soon now, but this has been the case
for several months, as time (and more bugs) kept cropping up.
