So I'd like to try out the new! improved! Celtk2 under Linux/SBCL, but I'm having some installation problems. First I found that I had a really old version of CFFI (thanks, Ubuntu!). After installing the latest CFFI tarball, I still get the following error:

Any hints on where to go next?

Hmmm. (require :celtk)? Well, it got all the way up to tk-structs so i guess SBCL is smart enough to know what to do. To rule out an issue here, hop into celtk/load.lisp and start evaluating forms one by one. But really...
That error has me concerned as to whether you have managed to get a clean CFFI environment. CFFI normally complains intelligently if I am off base, and that looks like an internals trip up. Might be a mismatch of old and new code.
Meanwhile I will go stare at tk-structs and the CFFI source to see if I notice anything funny about :unsigned-longs.

I am going with the guess that your CFFI install is still not straight. The string "to-c-dynamic-expander" does not appear in my CFFI source tree, but it does appear in an old directory helpfully named cffi-pre-2006-04. This would be consistent with you having a mix of code now, in which some of it is old and still looking for that slot, while some of it is new and no longer has that slot. Of course I do see "to-c" stuff in the new tree because CFFI has a lot of built-in abilities that way, but I have to think they refactored recently.
