This is sad. In modern scripting languages (like python or perl) it is a
trivial to use
an external library, just run the headers through SWIG and you are done.
An usually one can even call functions in an external library directly
(although this is less safe).
A SWIG interface has been implemented for Allegro. See

I think the developers of the various lisp compilers should get their
act together.
