Some news about the old problem of SBCL crashes and freezes with StumpWM when using mode line (i.e. multiple timers): I can run StumpWM on standard Debian SBCL happily now with my custom mode line utilizing several timers for its updates.
The infamous "Recursive lock attempt" was claimed to be fixed in SBCL 1.0.16 and apparently it indeed is. The only remaining problem is that if using run-shell-command in the timers then StumpWM hangs about once or twice per day, with both the threaded and non-threaded SBCL versions. No error message, no backtrace, no way to handle windows and SBCL has to be killed from another terminal. Well, the obvious work around is not to use run-shell-command which is possible in most cases.
