The SET-DISPATCH-MACRO-CHARACTER call is buried in the function
SERIES::INSTALL, which you must call after loading the series package:

clisp
(compile-file "series")
(load "series")
(series::install)
(compile-file "seriestest")
(load "seriestest")

For the Series package to run in CLISP, there are patches needed, however.
I have put them in /pub/lisp/clisp/packages on ma2s2.mathematik.uni-karlsruhe.de
as well as the whole series package itself.
