IMO the change to mem-aref is bad and will break a lot of code. Until now the contract of mem-aref was that it received a pointer to an array of the referenced type and returned a pointer offset into the array. The fact that it now returns a list is a gratuitous change, with no utility. If we actually want these semantics(not sure about it), it should be mem-aptr to implement them -- Stelian Ionescu a.k.a. fe[nl]ix Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum videtur. http://common-lisp.net/project/iolib
