I scanned the mailing list using the keywords "Permission denied", but
couldn't find anything pertinent in the first 20+ hits.  Could I have 
a pointer to the name of the tool?

As something that is probably irrelevant, while pottering around in
bash, I typed the following commands:

--------------------------------------------------
11> cmd
Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195]
(C) Copyright 1985-2000 Microsoft Corp.

c:\Documents and Settings\guyw\Local Settings\Home>clisp -q
clisp -q

[1]> (quit)

Bye.

c:\Documents and Settings\guyw\Local Settings\Home>exit
exit
12>
--------------------------------------------------

This make me think that I can run a 'cmd.exe' inferior shell from
within bash, that allows me to run clisp.
