I am trying to find a commercial grade Unix CommonLisp implementation 
that permits foreign function calls from OTHER languages, e.g. 
I want to call my Lisp routines from my C code. Are there any
implementations that permit an embedded Lisp?

As a related topic, what are the difficulties involved in doing this?
What if I promise that my Lisp code will be well-behaved, e.g. won't
call eval, apply, etc - does this make doing an embedded Lisp any easier?

Anyone from Franz or Lucid care to comment?

Thanks,
Jesse Thorn
