Hi

trying to load iolib.syscalls (iolib-0.7.0). I get the same results with iolib-0.7.2 if I did not miss something.

As far as I know all the dependencies described at http://common-lisp.net/project/iolib/download.shtml are in place.

Here some curiosity, the sbcl output mentions the lisp-name function. [...] Here lisp-name requires two arguments but I know that this is not the error in question, at least not yet.

It's surprising that SBCL doesn't signal an error on that

...

But I'm interested in your reflections on this nonetheless.

Since I also work on CFFI, I have several in-progress branches and I

I appreciate that.

think I might have tested the previous release on the wrong one.

Anyway, I've pushed a fix to CFFI and released 0.7.3, which work here

Thank you. Although an error still remains. The value VALUE is not of type SEQUENCE.    [Condition of type TYPE-ERROR] The argument spec passed to the function parse-name-and-options is the symbol 'value but substitute exspects a sequence, a list in this case I guess.
