Here is another test that shows that this is indeed a clisp bug. This 
one can easily be tried by anybody, so maybe someone will have an idea 
how to close in on the bug:

Run clisp so that it gives an error message, for example

  clisp -c /

Or run just "clisp" and type "1/0" or "bug" at the prompt.

Then do the same thing with "clisp" replaced by "env LANG=fr clisp", for 
example

  env LANG=fr clisp -c /

You will see that there is something wrong with message handling. It 
goes ballistic as soon as it sees a non-us-ascii character.

In fact, if I try LANG=de, I can get similar errors (not with the same 
tests, because the German error messages use fewer non-ascii characters 
than the French ones). The error message is then clearer:

Zeichen #\u00F6 kann im Zeichensatz CHARSET:ASCII nicht dargestellt werden.

It tries to represent unicode characters in ascii and complains when 
this doesn't work.
