(Lisp-HUG) FLI Issue...

Greetings to the List...

Question: I am endeavoring to communicate with a printer spooler to 
handle things like Out Of Paper conditions and the like (WIN32).

Is there anything weird about chit-chatting with *.drv system items 
through the FLI??

e.g.,
             (fli:register-module #P"C:/windows/system32/winspool.drv")

Lisp can't seem to find entry points inside the *.drv - the spooler 
system entry points remain undefined.

WIN32 doco points me into the winspool.drv file (rather than the more 
usual *.dll).

I am hoping that entering a *.drv file from Lisp Space is the same as 
entering a *.dll to reach those obscure(ish) WIN32 calls that are needed.

Thoughts??
