Thanks for the bug report. I agree with Greg that simply using plain
make-pathname thus not adding an extra dependency would be better. Can
you rewrite the patch taking that into consideration?

Re: osicat being broken, could you report that to the osicat mailing list?

Re: testing cffi-grovel on window, Osicat is probably your best bet.
If that fails, writing a simple test and adding to cffi-tests would be
nice.

Finally, your library does seem useful. Perhaps it could be integrated
into CL-FAD and/or Osicat?

Cheers,
