[ron at mickey:~]$ ccl -K utf-8
Welcome to Clozure Common Lisp Version 1.4-dev-r12434M-trunk   
(DarwinX8664)!
? (setf s "λ")
"λ"
? (length s)
1

[ron at mickey:~]$ python
Python 2.6.2 (r262:71600, Apr 16 2009, 09:17:39)
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5250)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> s=u'λ'
 >>> len(s)
1

The problem I'm having, it turns out, is that CCL:*DEFAULT-FILE- 
CHARACTER-ENCODING* is nil.  So CCL was barfing on my ccl-ide-init file.

All seems to be working now.  Even this:

[ron at mickey:~/devel/ccl/active]$ svnversion
12434M
