I'm guessing you are using C-u M-x slime and then sbcl there.

I fear it just works on my machines.

Could you give the *features* of sbcl? I'm guessing unicode is not enabled on amd64?

Could you give me a backtrace on that crash? (just typing "backtrace" 
in the *inferious-lisp* buffer should work)
