Yup, you're definitely right Daniel. Everyone's comment on the subject
was very helpful and gave us all insight into the internals of
Clojure. I guess the key points to learn in our case is:

1- Clojure supports primitives, but only when you ask for them (by
casting)
2- Clojure cannot unbox the boxed recur arguments which causes a
problem when the arguments of loop are primitive. This looks like a
bug to me. The code posted by Armando can be expanded to include boxed
versions of primitive types, why the code doesn't include such a
check ? Will Clojure's class hierarchy be a blocker ?

Again, I'm fairly new to Clojure and cannot answer these questions.
I'm only throwing them at you guys hoping someone will clarify them.
