Troubles with log4slime

[tmccombs]

When I add log4slime to my emacs config, I have the following problems:

When I start slime I get a bunch of errors:

And I don't get any syntax highlighting/fontification.

Does the load command need to be in a specific place in my emacs configuration?

The colors problem was actually caused by rainbow-delimiters being loaded by Prelude. I still don't know how to fix the style warnings though.

Generally by not reloading the swank-loader.lisp file; but the redefinition warnings aren't bad, there's really nothing broken there.
