I started such a port back in August but gave up at some point when GCL
wouldn't compile the portable bits of CFFI. I do not know if GCL can
compile them atm.
You can see what I came up with here:
http://common-lisp.net/project/cffi/darcs/cffi/src/cffi-gcl.lisp
It suffered some bitrot and my approach to this port might have not been
the best since I'm not familiar with GCL.
Anyway, any GCL user/developer is most welcomed to pick the port up and
update it. We'll be happy to answer any questions in the cffi-devel
mailing list that might come up in that process.
