[cffi-devel] Strange equivalence

In the file cffi-ecl.lisp of I find the equivalence table (:char :byte "char") (:unsigned-char :unsigned-byte "unsigned char") that associates, for the ECL port, a byte with the CFFI :char type. Is this intended per-specification? Why not using ECL's :char type, which might be more than one byte if the compiler and operating system expect so?
