Common Lisp actually doesn't specify a mechanism for this. There are implementations that can compile to e.g. DLL:

Unfortunately none of the FOSS implementations have this ability (to my knowledge). There is nothing inherently in Common Lisp that mandates the "core dump" delivery model.




One correction to my post above - Corman Lisp is a Free implementation that does have the ability to produce DLLs, but it is limited to Windows:

how about ECL? That should do that, too.
