I was wondering about glibc, one of the few global pieces that could (my
guess) affect cmucl.

Aha, same message I was getting before I tried the "loader from rh9"
hack. Maybe the hack would work again. But why is this working on some
machines and not on others?

Most probably you still have the cmucl-2003.12-1 package lying around,
right? You could install that one with rpm and the "--oldpackage"
option. That should get lisp back, I guess. Then you could try applying
the same hack I used before to get the newer image running. 

After installing the -1 package save these files somewhere else:
  /usr/lib/cmucl/lib/libdl-2.3.2.so
  /usr/bin/lisp
The upgrade to the -2 package. 
Copy the libdl-2.3.2.so to its original place. 
Rename /usr/bin/lisp to /usr/bin/lisp.bin
Install the /usr/bin/lisp that you saved in /usr/bin

Try starting lisp...

Hmmm, a bit old, current is 2.4.25 (in planet edge). I was thinking it
might be the Fedora kernel, which has different stuff built into it like
stack checks and the like.
