Hi Jeff,

in cffi/cfi-cmucl.lisp....

change this:
(defun %load-foreign-library (name)
  "Load the foreign library NAME."
  (sys::load-object-file name))

... to this:
(defun %load-foreign-library (name)
  "Load the foreign library NAME."
  (sys::load-object-file name)
  t)   ;<------- 

That's what I get from using an lightly tested version of cffi.
