Thanks Charley!

It works. But the following message is printed in the ACL Console:

    Warning: External-format `:CRLF-1251-BASE' passed to
             make-http-client-request filters line endings.
    Problems with protocol may occur.

The more appropriate seems to be
    (with-http-body (req ent
             :external-format :1251-base)
    (html "Hello [...]")
