What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

I assume its the latest since its downloaded by quicklisp , my OS is Lion 
latest.

Please provide any additional information below.

I am not the only one with this problem, the problem has been reported also in 
quicklisp mailing list here

http://groups.google.com/group/quicklisp/browse_thread/thread/d25c048674658efa/

The one things that worries me is that when I build I get warnings

make
gcc -fPIC  -I/usr/local/include/SDL -D_GNU_SOURCE=1 -D_THREAD_SAFE -c 
cocoahelper.m -o cocoahelper.o
cocoahelper.m: In function ‘setApplicationMenu’:
cocoahelper.m:163: warning: no ‘-setAppleMenu:’ method found
cocoahelper.m:163: warning: (Messages without a matching method signature
cocoahelper.m:163: warning: will be assumed to return ‘id’ and accept
cocoahelper.m:163: warning: ‘...’ as arguments.)
gcc -dynamiclib  -L/usr/local/lib -lSDLmain -lSDL -Wl,-framework,Cocoa -o 
cocoahelper.dylib cocoahelper.o

I searched the issues here and I found the one mentioning a problem with not 
building the framework, he attached a new makefile, tried that makefile , I get 
the same error. It does create the cocoahelper.framework but cocoahelper stills 
fails to load.

In case of ccl (Clozure CL64) it seems to load through quicklisp 
lispbuilder-sdl with no issues, but it messes up the Applemenu with adding a 
new apple icon that is smaller, so I think that the problem here is somewhate 
related with that applemenu missing method but of course I am not very good 
with lisp or objc so I will require your help here. Its seems like a bug

Does lispbuilder-sdl itself work?

in sbcl no , in ccl it displays a smaller apple icon which when i click on it 
nothing really happen, while he bigger apple icon opens up the apple menu 
correctly. That applies for all sdl examples and not just blocky. 

It seems that there is a conflict of some sort with Apple Menu. Also I remember 
last time I had several crashes with sdl examples and weird behavior.

And all that only with ccl I never managed to get sbcl working with sbcl at 
all. I can post the errors if you want with the sdl examples. In sort it seems 
lispbuilder is completely broken on macos Snow leopard and Lion.

sorry i understand now that you wanted me to just load lispbuilder-sdl, my macs 
are at home will try that when i get back . Isnt cocoahelper needed for 
creating the SDL window ? I thought it was necessary. I do think only 
cocoahelper is the problem here, but I may be wrong, I will have to test and 
get back at you.

I tried (ql:quickload '(:lispbuilder-sdl)) and it loaded without any problems.

ok cocoahelper makes with these warnings

gcc -fPIC  -D_GNU_SOURCE=1 -D_THREAD_SAFE 
-I/Library/Frameworks/SDL.framework/Headers/ -c cocoahelper.m -o cocoahelper.o
cocoahelper.m: In function ‘-[SDLMain setupWorkingDirectory:]’:
cocoahelper.m:90: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 3 of 
‘CFURLGetFileSystemRepresentation’ differ in signedness
cocoahelper.m: In function ‘setApplicationMenu’:
cocoahelper.m:163: warning: no ‘-setAppleMenu:’ method found
cocoahelper.m:163: warning: (Messages without a matching method signature

cocoahelper.m:163: warning: ‘...’ as arguments.)
gcc -dynamiclib  -framework SDL -framework Cocoa -o cocoahelper.dylib 
cocoahelper.o

when I (ql:quickload '(:lispbuilder-sdl)) it messes up the Applemenu with 
adding a new apple icon that is smaller, and I am suddenly unable to copy and 
paste stuff into the Clozure CL32 IDE. When I typed in the basic lispbuilder 
example (little green box in its own window) it doesn't work quite right: the 
box remains white, window doesn't close when I hit key (only closes when I hit 
the x button), box only moves to where I click to regain focus in that window.
