Of course if it going to look somewhere for the libraries, it needs to be told 
where to look. Thus it is "hardcoded"   

load.lisp reports an error if it can't find the libraries. That is a 
reasonable behavior given the circumstances.

What can be improved upon, however is that it currently isn't enough to just 
change the value in load.lisp. If it fails, gtk-ffi/gtk-ffi.lisp and/or 
gtk-app.lisp must also be changed.  That should be fixed.

Your point about wildcard not being interpreted by sbcl's directory function 
is well taken. Perhaps we can use logical pathnames, or is there a better 
way?
