Seems we should start research how to port exist ECL support code into DFFI as an additional feature, by detecting the #+DFFI feature.
Any comment?
> Announcement of ECL
> ===================
>
> ECL stands for Embeddable Common-Lisp. The ECL project aims to
> produce an implementation of the Common-Lisp language which complies
> to the ANSI X3J13 definition of the language.
>
> The term embeddable refers to the fact that ECL includes a lisp to C
> compiler, which produces libraries (static or dynamic) that can be
> called from C programs. Furthermore, ECL can produce standalone
> executables from your lisp code and can itself be linked to your
> programs as a shared library.
>
> ECL supports the operating systems Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD,
> Solaris (at least v. 9), Microsoft Windows and OSX, running on top of
> the Intel, Sparc, Alpha and PowerPC processors. Porting to other
> architectures should be rather easy.

> ECL is currently hosted at SourceForge. The home page of the project
> is http://ecls.sourceforge.net, and in it you will find source code
> releases, a git/CVS tree and some useful documentation.

> Known issues
> ============
>
> ECL's dynamic FFI (the one that does not rely on a C compiler) is now
> implemented using libffi (See http://sourceware.org/libffi/). Until
> another release in which the library might be bundled together with
> ECL, users will have to make sure that this library is built and
> available for this feature to be linked in (#+dffi). Otherwise only
> the C-based foreign function interface will be available.
