-;;;; This file contains some extensions to the Alien facility to

+;;;; FIXME: This file and host-c-call.lisp are separate from the
+;;;; rest of the alien source code for historical reasons: CMU CL
+;;;; made a distinction between the stuff in the C-CALL package and
+;;;; stuff in the ALIEN package. There's no obvious boundary
+;;;; there, though, and SBCL doesn't try to make this distinction,
