FLI :em-mb-string

Let's say I have a C foreign function that returns a string that will be
stored in a long-lived clos object. If I declare the result-type of the
foreign function as (:reference :ef-mb-string), is this sufficient given the
scenario I've described? Reading the LW docs, I *think* this is correct,
since :foreign-to-lisp-p is t by default.

Thanks for clarification.
