If they haven't changed SBCL's MP package *too* much from what
they inherited from CMUCL, there should be an :INITIAL-BINDINGS
keyword in the MP:MAKE-PROCESS function:

  :INITIAL-BINDINGS
        An alist of initial special bindings for the process.  At
        startup the new process has a fresh set of special bindings
        with a default binding of *package* setup to the CL-USER
        package.  INITIAL-BINDINGS specifies additional bindings for
        the process.  The cdr of each alist element is evaluated in
        the fresh dynamic environment and then bound to the car of the
        element.
