[postmodern-devel] Clozure CL Unicode support

[Marijn Haverbeke]

Hello Daniel,

Maciej already fixed this last month [1], so if you use a darcs
checkout instead of the latest release it should work. It's probably
about time for another release.

 [1] http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/darcsweb/darcsweb.cgi?r=postmodern-postmodern;a=filediff;h=20081008213910-21f96-f809d4b0de311ecf0b0a667a85c8b2f52d4e87f2.gz;f=cl-postgres.asd\

Best,
Marijn
