Not recently, it used to be that for some reason the clm foreign
function interface would not work, sometimes, when used on a different
system from the one in which it had been compiled. So I ended up
rebuilding it when the package is installed. 

You could try rebuilding it manually, do this as root (all in one line):

/usr/bin/lisp -core /usr/lib/cmucl/cm-clm-cmn.core -eval
"(clm::rebuild-ffi)(sys::quit)"

And then try restarting cmucl-cm-clm-cmn...
Let me know if that fixes the problem.
