CMUCL-19a, -19c, & -19e can be added to that list as well.


-Rob

p.s. The earlier [April 2003] CMUCL-18e requires an additional
:IF-DOES-NOT-EXIST :CREATE option on the WITH-OPEN-FILE
(if "foo.txt" doesn't, in fact, already exists), and also
gives a different result:

"abcdefghijk" 
(0 #\a 1 NIL 0 #\x 1 #\a 2 #\b) 
"abcdefghijk" 

But the -18 series is so old I think we can safely ignore it
as a measure of "what's right".
