Pascal Costanza is working on this (see http://p-cos.blogspot.no/2012/09/closer-to-mop-on-abcl-and-ecl.html), and has been reporting some quite involved bugs which have been fixed.  I think having a released version of abcl with mop support will make it easier to release a new version of closer-mop as well ("works with abcl >= 1.1" instead of "please download a svn version of abcl and compile it yourself"), so we need not wait for closer-mop.

Pascal, are there any outstanding bugs you need fixed?

Cool, I hadn't thought running CFFI from the JVM was possible.
