Maybe some Fortran code converted to Lisp via f2cl might work? (If
so, look at clocc.sourceforge.net.)

In the Lisp repository there's code for the simplex algorithm.
Also, the code of Numerical Recipes is available in CL, and this
includes the simplex algo (the code for C is available from the net,
but the CL code was only available on a cdrom priced 100 GBP last
time I checked).
