this bug was introduced during the repackaging and fixed on 2001-06-17.
there are quite a few files involved, so I am reluctant to create a
separate patch.

you can replace "FOREIGN-FUNCTION" with "FFI::FOREIGN-FUNCTION" in the
definition of FUNCTION-SIGNATURE in compiler.lisp to fix your particular
problem, or you can try the CVS version.

Thanks for reporting the bug.
