Use new-clx. It's faster (written in C), requires no
fiddling with your X setup (re -nolisten-tcp), and it
supports StumpWM's timers. If you're just using mit-clx, you
don't need CVS clisp, you can just rebuild your distro's
package with mit-clx instead of new-clx--but don't do that,
it's pointless and you'll end up wanting to use new-clx
anyway. I wrote the cl-ppcre bit on the FAQ, but that's just
the way *I* did it.  When you figure it out, put your
solution on the Wiki too, that's how it's supposed to work.
