I've "fixed" that problem several times.  Each time some aspect of
the problem is fixed.  It used to be that there were easy reproducible
ways of causing the problem, but currently there are no known reproducible
ways to cause the lisp.run zombie process problem.  If anybody knows
of one please do tell.

Note that for me on sage.math (a linux box) running the OP's derivative.sage
does not lead to a lisp.run zombie.

Switching from clisp to ecl, which we plan to do, would also make this problem
go away (possibly to be replaced by another one).
