I seem to have a patch for storing structure object in lispworks
from you already. 
Is this the same one? 
If it is I've added it to cvs but I don't think I uploaded
a new version to cl.net 

It should be there now though.

Subject: [Cl-store-devel] Xml backend.
Message-ID: <87brfilguz.fsf@sdr.ucs.co.za>


Hi all, 
  
  Is anyone actually using the xml backend?
  It's becoming a pain in the rear to maintain and I'm thinking 
  of only keeping it around as a reference of sorts.

  If anyone is using it just let me know.

 Regards, 
   Sean.

Subject: [Cl-store-devel] Release of CL-STORE 0.3
Message-ID: <87acuqu3kl.fsf@sdr.ucs.co.za>


CL-STORE 0.3 has just been released.


Noteworthy Changes
-------------------
- New Magic Number (Objects stored with older versions will be unrestorable)
- Lispworks support for storing structures (Thanks to Alain Picard).
- Support for infinite floats on Lispworks (Thanks to Alain Picard).
- Infinite and NaN float support on SBCL and CMUCL.
- Support for symbols with unicode strings as names.
- Storing multiple values with multiple-value-store.
- Support for NaN floats on Lispworks.
- Small optimization for integers (Decreases size of objects).
- All errors signalled inside store and restore can be handled 
  by catching store-error and restore-error respectively.
  If left unhandled the originating error is still signalled.
 


The new version can be asdf-installed or downloaded 
at http://www.common-lisp.net/project/cl-store

Regards 
 Sean.
