[babel-devel] string-to-octets optimization for base-string's

Luis, please take a look at the attached patch as time permits. it optimizes string-to-octets when called with simple-base-string's but unfortunately it compiles with warnings which stops asdf:load-op... the problem is with calling instantiate-concrete-mappings with simple-base-string. do you have any ideas how to handle this? i have this patch hanging around locally for quite some time now... -- attila
