I upgraded to SBCL 1.0.25 (still from stock Debian packages), and the
problem still happens.  I've been running stumpwm from within screen, so I
can C-c it to get the debugger and then look at a backtrace.  It looks
like something to do with running the external program I use for my mode
line.  I'm not sure what else I can tell from there; I'll probably just
rewrite stuff to get all the info I want in my mode line from within
stumpwm.
