Summary: Wrong string types cause type errors in SBCL

Initial Comment:
Current (2005-04-30) CVS HEAD does not build on newish SBCL's
as Maxima seems to assume that strings containing only base-
characters are base-strings, whereas in unicode enabled SBCL this 
is not necessarily true:

* (type-of "FOO")

(SIMPLE-ARRAY CHARACTER (3))

* (type-of (coerce "FOO" 'base-string))

(SIMPLE-BASE-STRING 3)

* (typep "FOO" 'base-string)

NIL
