Dear Robert,
I have two local branches with these patches. May I merge into master?
The input-string function was added for symmetry while hacking cl-launch, though I ended up not using it, to remain compatible with older versions of uiop.
The uiop:getenv bug was discovered while fixing cl-launch regressions on LispWorks.
The fasl-op thing is what he had discussed before (only minimally manually tested).
