Basically, gcl does not support some of the things we want to use.
Currently it's ok, but the proposed change to use cl-ppcre for building
the help database will not work with gcl. Gcl does not support enough
of Common Lisp.
However, gcl is one of the fastest lisps running gcl. Ccl is slower, I
think. (I don't have any machine that runs both gcl and ccl so I cannot
say for sure.)
