              <li>Uses 2006-06-26 version of CFFI.
 	     <li>Cleaner load with sbcl. (Thanks, Andras Simon.)
 	     <li>Tested with LINUX: LW/Pro, sbcl, clisp; WIN32: clisp.
-             <li>Seems to have problems loading libraries with cmucl (not investigated much).
+             <li>There is a minor problem with cmucl. The fix: edit %load-foreign-library in 
+                 cffi/cffi-cmucl.lisp to return non-nil. That is, Make it look like this:<pre><tt>
+(defun %load-foreign-library (name)
+  "Load the foreign library NAME."
+  (sys::load-object-file name)
+  t) </tt></pre></li>
              <li>I (Peter Denno) had problems with LW/Win32. But others seem ok. -- If this form:<br>
                  <tt>(fli:register-module "libgdk-win32-2.0-0.dll" :connection-style :immediate)</tt><br>
 		 -- returns OK (once you've installed GTK libs) then you should be OK.
