As mentioned on the list, I made some recent changes to the mechanism  
by which lines are read in both s-http-client and server; although  
they did work for me (lispworks), maybe they broke things on other  
platforms.

Maybe, Friedrich can help you, since he is using SBCL daily, I think ...

I will be looking into this later, after installing ASDF-Binary- 
Locations to remove the FASL conflicts of using many lisp  
implementation - I will then try sbcl; but even then, I might not be  
able to help you since my platform (mac os x) doesn't equal yours;  
and sbcl does not have the same feature set on all platforms.

Stay tuned!
