grobner package error after compiling



Hi,
The compilation of the Grobner package woks O.K. with cmucl following
the instructions in its README file. However, for clisp one has to omit the
:load t
in the compile-file function. In Emacs (using the maxima.el package) one 
gets the following error
under clisp (not under cmucl):

MAXIMA> (compile-file "maxima-grobner.lisp")
Maxima encountered a Lisp error:

invalid byte #xE1 in CHARSET:ASCII conversion

I do not know what this means, and why this happens only for clisp.

Thank you,
jose
