There seems to be maintenance, though not as active as that in GCC;
see http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/clisp/clisp/ffcall/
It is maintained as part of Bruno Haible's GNU CLISP package, whose
latest release was mid-September, so there is motion. I have inquired
further on the clisp-list.

extending copyright today escapes me, unless they have a time machine
somewhere.
