Getting started on Mac OS X doesn't

[Dave Yost]

Followed instructions in INSTALL, I believe, but can't get anywhere. Here's what happens.

SBCL needs a Common Lisp to bootstrap; usually, it's bootstrapped with an older SBCL. If you just want to install SBCL, download a binary from sbcl.org and install from that. If you want to build SBCL, download a binary from sbcl.org, install it, and then build from source.

I see the problem. This page
  http://sbcl.org/platform-table.html
Should prominently mention the fact that boxes in the table are clickable and cause download.
