Oh, I'm using Lucid Lisp with Clim 1.1 on a DecStation.
I tried redefining my *terminal-io* to be a window in an application
frame and a regular window created by open-window-stream, but in both
cases, I got the following message when an error occured:
Nasty recursive error in debugger.
Debugger panicking due to recursive errors, using the initial-io stream
>>Error: Stream #<CLIM::CLX-WINDOW /x 0:600 y 0:374/ 110ADD5E> is not
open for input.
So, I image it's not as easy to redefine *terminal-io* in Lucid as it
is on the Symbolics.
shouldn't you instead be redefining *standard-output*,
*standard-input*, and *error-output* ?
in addition, your error suggests that the window that you bound
*terminal-io* to did not support input; I'm not sure what kind of
stream you'll get with open-window-stream.

Clint and I haven't talked about this, but I haven't gotten this to
work (running an application in the same image with a host/display
on an arbitrary platform using the :host :display options to a :clx
root-window). However, it wasn't a controlled experiment, since it
was run from within a lisp image that may have been munged by another
database application.
Thanks,
