I'm not sure what you mean with "Common Lisp", but for instance ECL
(that is C toolchain based) AFAIK on Windows falls back to bytecode by
default (I guess this is similar to the Emacs one).  CLISP is even only
byte-compiled.

That said to be clear: with the native compiler we are in full bring-up
phase.  The fact that I try to maintain the branch always functional and
people are already using it does no mean is finished.

I don't think this is the moment to address this, especially given we
are not taking any design decision that goes against this option.
