Then why not use gcl then? It's still being actively worked on
(probably in the context of maxima, though). And comments are in
English. (This is what keeps me from hacking on clisp: German
comments.)
Making it fit with xemacs might not be so easy....
The last time I tried gcl it claimed CLtL1 compatibility which doesn't
include CLOS. Has it moved closer to ANSI Common Lisp? I already
have some ideas for how to improve CLiCC (I just don't know where in
the code to put them).
