Yes.  My main Lisp for axiom purposes is GCL2.6.8pre latest from cvs.
This is the only Lisp that I `support', but I have periodically
checked that sbcl and clisp accept the source.

I have not tested it.  I would be surprised if it worked.  The parser
handles a good chuck of the spad grammar but it is known to be
deficient in a few areas, and even intentionally incompatible in
others.  Perhaps I will use the guess package as `representative'
input during the next iteration of improvements.
