I am running stumpwm with cmucl 19c. I have tried to test the patches,
but I don't know if I am using the correct test.

I tried this:

in stumpwmrc:

(defun test ()
  (echo-string (current-screen) "∫dϕ = 2π"))

(setq *screen-mode-line-format* "∫dϕ = 2π %w")


And then at the repl I did (test) without the patches.  This didn't
generate an error, but the message from #'test was blank, and so was the
modeline.  

With the patches applied, still no error, but I did get the latin-1
rendition of "∫dϕ = 2π" in both the message and the mode-line.

I suspect that this isn't the correct test, though, since I was
expecting some error before applying the patch.
