Right, but what I have in mind is clojure-sitting-on-top-of-SBCL so that one can (with a suitable reimplementation thereof) use clojure's persistent data structures, protocols, deftype, etc... on top of a (somewhat more traditional?) native code-generating backend like SBCL's. There's a lot of machinery in there that solves problems that the JVM solves (in completely different ways, of course).
One approach is the clojure-as-DSL such that this could work on any suitable CL system. An alternative approach would be to hack SBCL's compiler directly such that we're using the SBCL runtime and code generation bits more directly. This would be a lot of work, but might be interesting if the resulting product could have natively-compiled CL and clojure playing nicely with each other. Just a thought...
