This is checked in the `unicode-utf16-extfmt-branch' branch and not the `unicode-utf16-branch' which I was trying. I should probably follow up on the cmucl lists
Sorry for the delay. Yes, you need to be using the extfmt-branch to get support for external formats. The utf16 branch only basically just changes the internal representation and has minimal support for external format. The extftm-branch has much more complete support. (But still lacks lots of other support for unicode.)
