I've met similar messages on the second time compilation
if, by some reason, the first attempt was not succesfull, e.g., due to memory 
problem. For example on my notebook with 512Mb RAM the compilation may be 
aborted with diagnostic "game over .... not enough memory ... ldb>".

Then, if the case, you have to clean the lapack source tree from fasl's  files 
and start again with load(lapack).  This procedure need enough memory be sure 
that nothing else is concurrent with compilation. BTW for cmucl the 
compilation is more smooth on my pc.        

take care
