I don't think I can do anything about this bug.  Upstream aren't able to

on ppc64el or remove sbcl on that architecture, if you think that would
be warranted.

cl-ironclad *and* cl-postmodern. And the error is identical:
no size function for object at 0x100009bf80 (widetag 0x33)

How severe do you think this error is? Does it indicate that sbcl is useless on ppc64el or is this a niche use case?

Removal of sbcl on ppc64el seems to be going to be non-trivial as it's a key package via cl-cffi which is needed for brltty which is very important for our accessibility support (pulled in via d-i if I'm not mistaken).
