Re: vbz Portable AllegroServe gray-streams external-format

I'm very new to Lisp, asdf, and aserve so this is probably a very
simple problem. After I asdf:install aserve, I run aserve's
INSTALL.lisp and get the following:

...

; compiling (DEFMETHOD PRINT-OBJECT ...)
; compiling (DEFMACRO WITH-HTTP-RESPONSE ...); compilation aborted
because of fatal error:

; Symbol "EXTERNAL-FORMAT" not found in the GRAY-STREAM package.
; compilation aborted after 0:00:00


My operating environment:
Mac OS X 10.5.4
sbcl 1.0.19
portableaserve-1.2.47-vbz-0.1.4

I have these packages:
acl-compat
htmlgen
cl-ppcre-2.0.0
puri-1.5.1
cl-unicode-0.1.1
flexi-streams-1.0.7
trivial-gray-streams-2006-09-16

Some probably useless observations:
It looks like an issue with gray-stream:external-format; I have almost
no idea what this is about or how to fix it.
All instances of gray-stream:external-format in aserve/main.cl are
preceded by #+sb-unicode.

Thanks for any help,

I think folks nowadays prefer Hunchentoot for opensource Lisp web server. Built nicely once I collected all the dependencies.
