I believe this is due to the used Lisp systems. Using SBCL xx.out
contains only the input, using GCL or ECL it contains input and output.

)spool uses the Common Lisp function dribble and according to the
hyperspec dribble:

   Either binds *standard-input* and *standard-output* or takes other
appropriate action, so as to send a record of the input/output
interaction to a file named by pathname.

...

   dribble is intended primarily for interactive debugging; its effect
cannot be relied upon when used in a program.
