[cffi-devel] Re: cffi-sys::default-encoding returns nil on clisp/mingw

So I can see why DEFAULT-ENCODING is returning NIL. Before I head over to clisp-devel and ask about this, I just wanted to see whether this situation surprises anyone here, or if you think it might be a CLISP build configuration issue (which would be funny because I'm one of the MingW package maintainers), or ???

Hmm, it's somewhat strange, I guess. BTW, should we worry about line terminator conversions?

This is on WinXP SP2, CLISP 2.41 (mingw special) with nothing related to encoding for command-line arguments.

I've applied a fix and a regression test for this. Should work now, though I haven't tested on windows.

Thanks for the bug report.
