actually I tried using ECL with stumpwm, on the Raspberry Pi.
There seems to be at least one problem I came across. When installing
quicklisp ecl messes up (merge-pathnames) in the init file, which
renders quicklisp useless.
I fixed this manually but found another problem, one that seems to be
related to (merge-pathnames) as well, when called from within asdf.
Guess there's something broken in ECL related to the ARM platform.

So far I've been unable to investigate any further, due to time constrains.

Personally I agree with you Wojciech, it would be a pity if ECL
support is removed from stumpwm. But I'm really no Lisp expert and
thus doubt that I can be of great help in fixing the bugs, although
I'll be happy to do some testing and digging around if needed.

Regards,
Christian Walther
