It doesn't make everything work exactly as in CLtL1, but it does provide the LISP & USER packages (CLtL2 renames these to COMMON-LISP & COMMON-LISP-USER), and provides CLtL1 versions of LISP:IN-PACKAGE, LISP:FUNCTIONP, and LISP:CHAR-BITS & friends. You might try evaluating the following two forms before loading your code: (require "LISP-PACKAGE") (in-package :user)
