CFFI tends to have name specifications like (c-name lisp-name)
whenever fully specifying the names as a list.
In CFFI-Grovel, we're tentatively doing (lisp-name &rest c-names) in
several places (for constants and enums). This is so that we can
easily provide a list of alternative c-names for the groveler to try
as it hunts for the symbol. e.g.:
(defconstant (path-max "PATH_MAX" "MAXPATHLEN"))
which covers both SYSVish and BSDish systems.
But this is bad because it's backwards from what CFFI does. Anyone
have any ideas on a good syntax? I'd really like groveler forms to
strongly resemble CFFI (or CL) forms to reduce user confusion.
