 CMUCL gives:

* #p"ngc:patch;nworld-3-1;nworld-3-1-001.fasl"

#p"ngc:patch;nworld-3-1;nworld-3-1-001.fasl"
* (describe *)

#p"ngc:patch;nworld-3-1;nworld-3-1-001.fasl" is a structure of type PATHNAME.
HOST: #<COMMON-LISP::UNIX-HOST {503EE25}>.
DEVICE: NIL.
DIRECTORY: (:ABSOLUTE #<SEARCH-LIST ngc>).
NAME: "patch;nworld-3-1;nworld-3-1-001".
TYPE: "fasl".
VERSION: :NEWEST.

  Where do I send the first bug report for the LispOS project. :-)
