[elephant-devel] Problem with Elephant on SBCL 0.8.17

[Ben]

unicode in sbcl is not supported yet.  i was waiting for it to settle
down a bit.  probably i'll work on it for the next release.  in the
meantime use 8-bit character representations.  unicode works for
allegro if you need it.  sorry.

take care, B
