The commit calls MAKE-FD-STREAM with an EXTERNAL-FORMAT keyword argument But MAKE-FD-STREAM in code/fd-stream and the structure do not support this yet?
(sys:make-fd-stream fd :input t :output t :element-type 'base-char
:buffering buffering))
:buffering buffering#+unicode :external-format#+unicode external-format))
It's only supported if you have a unicode build, which hasn't been officially released yet.
This works for me. To be useful, you might want to do (setf *default-external-format* :utf-8) or something. You need to set up slime too to be able to see something useful.
