Issues with loading swank in stumpwm

 I had this issue that swank would not load when run in .stumpwmrc; SBCL would complain that it can't require "sb-cltl2", even though the package was available when I tried it in an SBCL repl. This comment on github finally made me realize what was happening.

I had to edit my /usr/share/xsessions/stumpwm.desktop file and change the "Exec=" line to this:

Exec=env SBCL_HOME=/usr/lib/sbcl stumpwm

After that, swank would load successfully.
