http://bknr.net/trac/changeset/4655 corrects this problem.
Hunchentoot now determines the charset= attribute in text content type
headers automatically when a handler returned a string.  The content
type is not touched when the handler directly writes to the stream or
returns octets for Hunchentoot to send.

Please let me know if there are any problems with this change.
