I guess I have to do that for now. If hello-c takes off (more below), I 
will make it a standalone c-l.net project.

Andras, plz send a full tarball of your hello-c source (I use a win32 
utility to diff/merge source) and I will get that into CVS. Thx, and thx 
for the effort on hello-c/cmucl.

Hello-c exists because the UFFI maintainer rejected it (for 
understandable reasons) and we (the UFFI  maintainer and I) agreed a 
fork was the best solution.
