Look for quicklisp in /var/lib or /home directory #32

I am working on a Linux distribution called v-refracta, and on it most of the programs are supposed to be Lisp.

Here I've patched sbcli to look in either the home directory or a "standard" directory for quicklisp installed by a distribution package.
I'm open to putting quicklisp in a different directory than /var/lib/quicklisp, and if you can think of a better one you could change it here. (I assumed it needed to go in /var because it was going to be written to in less predictable ways than is expected with /usr/share.)

;; check for the two most likely places quicklisp is installed and try to load it
;; on v-refracta, it is simply installed in /var/lib/
(let ((home-quicklisp (merge-pathnames "quicklisp/setup.lisp" (user-homedir-pathname)))
(var-quicklisp (merge-pathnames "setup.lisp" #p"/var/lib/quicklisp/")))

Hey, this var-quicklisp is inside the let, it is badly indented here.

(load "~/quicklisp/setup")

Mentioning v-refracta might be a private comment not needed here?

My 2c.
