The documentation for setbinary says it sets the encoding for current input, output and error streams to ISO-8859-1, as well as making it the default for new ports. Is that supposed to affect make- regexp and regexp-exec as well? If I replace the call with a call to set-latin-1 (modified to try ".ISO8859-1", as described above), which sets the locale, the test passes on the Mac. Ken
