Hallo,

current CMUCL snapshots should have no problem with this. from cvs log:

revision 1.96
date: 2003/07/17 17:48:32;  author: gerd;  state: Exp;  lines: +3 -2
        * src/code/macros.lisp (with-output-to-string): Add and
        ignore element-type.

So Klaus is probably using the latest official release (18e) which does
not incorporate this fix yet.

Kind regards,
Stephan
