I am trying to use cl-curl with sbcl 1.0 (unicode), and I get a c-string decoding error (please see the backtrace below).
A web search revealed that this problem with sbcl has occurred in some other contexts (e.g. with the stump window manager), but I did not find any explanation of the underlying problem, or any resolution.
Thanks, Hans
