Yes, openmcl is not ready to replace gcl yet. This is one problem,
another is that it doesn't handle stack overflows very well (64 bit
openmcl might be better). My main motivation was to port winkill to
other lisps and I started with openmcl. I still can't get sbcl to work
nicely with maxima and I need threads for winkill which sbcl does not
support on Windows. So this leaves ecl, but I don't have ecl installed
yet.
