The idea overall is good.  The problem is that CLISP's C binding is way 
more powerful.  In particular, GNU Smalltalk has no support for enums 
and variables.

Also, more work (or a wrapper layer, that SWIG is very good at emitting) 
would be necessary to support things such as passing structures by value.
