Ken:
The cause of my difficulty indeed was a corrupted file. I was looking
for it in a completely different direction, and I clearly don't know how
to correctly parse Java error messages!
Thank you very much for sharing your cleverness and your expertise.

I'm having trouble getting the load-file command to work in a Clojure repl.
On some files it works and on some it doesn't. Here is an example of its not
working:
I do:
(load-file "/Users/larrytravis/AquaFiles/sdku-project-defns")
And I get the error message:
java.lang.Exception: Unable to resolve symbol: selection in this context
(sdku-project-defns:867)
The file "sdku-project-defns" definitely exists in the directory
"/Users/larrytravis/AquaFiles" and is retrievable from there with other
applications. Why does the Clojure repl append ":867" to the file's name and
then tell me that the changed name is an unresolvable symbol?
I think it's telling you that "selection" is an unresolvable symbol
and that it appears on line 867 of your file.
The file may simply contain a bug. Most likely it's a lack of a
forward declaration. If you were developing at the REPL "selection"
may have been defined before you defined the stuff that uses it, but
if "selection" isn't earlier in the file than what's using it, you'll
get this error on load in a fresh session.
