BTW, SBCLs "(sb-posix:stat-ctime (sb-posix:stat filename))" somehow returns wrong ctime — I got 1956 as a file creation year, while IRL it is equal to 2026 
I very sourly remember my own attempt at contributing to sbcl and getting shut down by Christophe, so I don't really care to get myself involved again -- I don't have the energy to be confrontational about it.
If course can be reversed on this, that would be very nice, but I neither have the "project clout" nor the mind to get into a bunch of fights and make myself even less popular to try and steer this ship into a more reasonable direction again.
For now, I guess a preliminary RIP to #sbcl.
So it looks like the #sbcl project is getting sloppified. Very, very saddening to see. It feels like something is slipping through my fingers, so I thought I should say something publicly.
Evidently Christophe is not interested in shutting this crap down, and when I read his email about it, I pretty much gave up on saying something myself. His stance is hopelessly naïve, and this is only being shown now.
As soon as you get these idiots a gap, they'll wedge it open, and it's already happened.
