I need to know how to get the physical addresses of some primitive types in
ACL (notably 32-bit integers and floats), and how extract them given
addresses.

Many thanks,

A

Context: interfacing foreign c functions. I can't use the :pass-types
argument of defforeign due to externally imposed restrictions, and so
everything must be passed by value.

See the ftype.htm and maybe the foreign_functions.htm pages that come
with their docs in ${ACL_HOME}/doc/cl/
