Package: cl-cffi
Version: 20080217-1
Severity: important


Current Debian version of cl-cffi cannot work with utf8-strings, because
at low-level it tries to convert string to byte-array and vice versa.

In current upstream version 10.3 
(http://common-lisp.net/project/cffi/releases/cffi_0.10.3.tar.gz)
this problem is already solved.

Another solution is patching cl-cffi/src/strings.lisp.
