I think that's incorrect: The Common Lisp language has no FFI (foreign
function call) capabilities.  Each CL _implementation_ has one (which
is usually compatible to itself).  This is exactly the reason why
there are way more libraries out there for Python, Perl, maybe Ruby
than for any single CL implementation.  The same probably holds for
Scheme.
