[cl-pdf-devel] cl-pdf and cl-typesetting portability

[Marc Battyani]

I know that cl-pdf and cl-typesetting work very well with LispWorks as it's
the Lisp implementation I use daily. But I would like to know how it works
on other implementations.
For instance I've been told that there are again some problems with the zlib
FFI binding for SBCL and maybe CMUCL.
(This zlib FFI has proven to be the major annoyance.)

Another portability problem was the under-specification of the LOOP
behaviour in the standard, which caused problems with Lisps not using a MIT
based LOOP, like CLisp. So far it's solved by switching to ITERATE which is
better than LOOP anyway ;-)

Other problems/patches/etc. ?

Thanks,

Marc
