[deleted description of a 'bug' with Allegro Common Lisp on a Mac IIx]

This "Yet another" scares me; this is the first I've heard of.  Are there
really many?  I'm trying to decide whether or not to buy a Mac IIcx
(I must decide within about a week) and one of the primary things I'd
probably do on it is run Allegro.  Would you say that this is foolhardy?
Are there just a few avoidable bugs or is it much worse?  I'd really
appreciate any help anyone could give me.   

    Thanks much  -Lee
