Greetings! Well, if 1) it is not too difficult, and 2) UFFI looks
like it will become a standard, then it would certainly be possible to
get this in. Adding lisp features, I've found, is really less
difficult than chasing down mysterious GCL behavior :-).
Unfortunately, time is limited, and the other issues are probably more
important. If its a quick and very useful, though, I could perhaps
find some time. Any one else interested?
Take care,
