Any idea?
This particular problem happens if tools.jar (from
JDK_HOME/lib/tools.jar) is not in the classpath.

However, even if tools.jar is in the classpath there will be other
problems later. swank-kawa.scm and hence SLIME doesn't work with a
current version of Kawa because there have been some changes to Kawa's
port classes and swank-kawa.scm was not updated.  I will not fix this
anytime soon or maybe never.

I'd recommend not to spend time on SLIME and instead use comint-mode or
simply rlwrap.
