I have now found where this chokes: It happens when dpkg tries to 
install the file

/sw/share/doc/sbcl/html/sbcl/Method-sb_002dbsd_002dsockets_003asocket_002dmake_002dstream-_0028_0028socket-socket_0029-_0026key-input-output-_0028element_002dtype-_0027character_0029-_0028buffering-full_0029-_0028external_002dformat-default_0029-timeout_0029.html

If I remove this file in sbcl's InstallScript, then sbcl (1.0.33 and 
1.0.34) installs OK on 10.6/32bit (at least sometimes, at other times it 
produces the sb-posix module build failure I have seen also on 
10.6/64bit occasionally).

This looks like dpkg is not able to handle files with a file name longer 
than 256 characters. On the other hand, I don't understand why this bug 
only shows up on 10.6/32bit and not on 10.6/64bit nor on 10.5/32bit.
