GCL is working on being ANSI compliant and there is work to try to port Axiom to other CL implementations. Axiom isn't really structured as a library although with some effort I suppose it could be made into one. Unlike other computer algebra systems Axiom is strongly dependent on it's type structure which is associated with every result. A lisp call would have to know how to carry this structure. But Axiom is just a program implemented in common lisp (CLtL2) so it is entirely possible to load lisp code into an Axiom image and use it from there.
