That setting seems too excessive: you do that for _all_ subprocesses,
not just for clisp, and you set both direction of the I/O with
subprocesses to the Unix style, which is IMHO unwise on a Windows
system.  At least the direction of input (from the subprocess to
Emacs) should be undecided-dos, so that the ^M characters written by
the subprocesses get stripped.  Otherwise, they will appear in your
buffers where Emacs puts the subprocess output.
