Hi Marc,

I got stuck first with general unicode problems (they've got nothing to do
with cl-typesetting, but mostly with my dumbness), and then with the missing
font problem. I'll try again in the weekend, using the instructions in
unicode-readme.

ps. Should unicode-string-type return the most specific type for unicode
strings?  If so, then I think it could return simple-string in sbcl and
simple-base-string in CLisp.
