Hello, I am a budding Common Lisper. I was working on a cl-mechanize script to fill out an HTML form when I noticed that one of cl-mechanize's dependencies, cl+ssl, depends on CFFI. When I try to load cl-mechanize, which loads drakma, which loads cl+ssl, I get the following message: *** - CFFI requires CLISP compiled with dynamic FFI support.
The problem seems to be that ffcall is not installed. When I try to install it with MacPorts, I get this message:

Hi Andrew,
Your question doesn't really pertain to CFFI; its a Clisp install issue.
You'll probably have better luck asking on their mailing list. https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/clisp-list
You may also want to look at Clozure Common Lisp. It has very good mac support. http://trac.clozure.com/ccl
