Re: Hunchentoot in SBCL on Intel OS X

SBCL supports Unicode by default.

Threads are currently supported on x86 and x86-64 Linux and Solaris,
and _experimental_ thread support exists for OS X (x86 only).

To build SBCL with threads:

$ cd to-your-sbcl-source-tree

$ echo "(lambda (f) (cons :sb-thread f))" >
customize-target-features.lisp

$ sh make.sh

(Read INSTALL for details.)

....and as always, SBCL questions are best asked and answered on eg.
sbcl-help mailing list.

3. On another issue entirely: in order to install anything via
asdf-install, I need to use "sudo sbcl" for site-wide packages. I can

AFAIK most people don't asdf-install lisp packages site-wide on their
development boxes. If you really want to do it, start Lisp as root,
install what you want, exit, and then run it as a regular user.
