OK. On superficial examination, it seems like foreign-string-alloc and lisp-string-to-foreign have significant duplicated code. Is there a reason for that rather than having the former call the latter?

Having the foreign-string-alloc call lisp-string-to-foreign would cause the string length to be calculated twice. But it indeed seems like they could both share a helper function at least. -- Luís Oliveira http://kerno.org/~luis/
