Mirko,
My platform is Debian x86-64. All libraries go in /usr/lib as in other architectures. So your conditionals
((:and :unix (:not :x86-64)) (:or "/usr/lib/libgslcblas.so.0" "/usr/lib/libgslcblas.so" "/bin/cyggslcblas-0.dll")) ((:and :unix :x86-64) (:or "/usr/lib64/libgslcblas.so.0" "/usr/lib64/libgslcblas.so"))
breaks the path to /usr/lib because of the (:not :x86-64). It turns out that Debian actually has a /usr/lib64 which is just a link to /usr/lib, but you shouldn't count on that link being there since /usr/lib is the normal place to put libraries. There is nothing wrong with minimizing the number of conditionals; it is an ":or" search path, so if it doesn't find it at the early locations, it just keeps on searching. Thus
(:unix (:or "/usr/lib/libgslcblas.so.0" "/usr/lib/libgslcblas.so" "/bin/cyggslcblas-0.dll" "/usr/lib64/libgslcblas.so.0" "/usr/lib64/libgslcblas.so"))
should work everywhere. If there is a feature that indicates cygwin, it might be better to separate that off into another conditional. Please post *features* from your implementation. Thanks.

Liam,
Unfortunately, I am confused: As far as I can see I did two things:
- for non-64-bit unix, I added another library location:
/bin/cyg...dll for both gsl and gslcblas
- for clisp+cygwin I explicitly specified loading of
/lib/lapack/cygblas.dll before loading the gsl library.
I did not touch the x86-64 specifiactions.
Could it be that I modified an older version of init.lisp? (mine is from March 4, 2006).

Mirko,
Thanks for your contribution. Unfortunately, it might break other platforms because it now compels x86-64 to only look in /usr/lib64, which might not be present. See if something like this will work for you:
(cffi:define-foreign-library libgslcblas (:darwin (:or "/opt/local/lib/libgslcblas.dylib" "/sw/lib/libgslcblas.dylib" "/usr/local/lib/libgslcblas.dylib")) (:unix (:or "/usr/lib/libgslcblas.so.0" "/usr/lib/libgslcblas.so" "/usr/lib64/libgslcblas.so.0" "/usr/lib64/libgslcblas.so")) (t (:default "libgslcblas")))
(and similarly for the other library). If it works, I will put it in the upcoming release.

Hello,
I was able to load gsll on cygwin by pointing to cygwin's gsll libraries in gsll/init/init.lisp file. I am attaching the modified version. It also makes a note for making gsll loadable from within slime+emacs_NT (tested with cygwin+clisp)
