::notify loke tell me how far you got with the mcclim-freetype2 backend, i obviously get many errors and am also in the process of checking the old mcclim sources of it to see what has changed since then, i'm not sure i could see errors right away especially if they are ffi/cffi specific, old code also seems to have had a different facility like alien or so for a more generic ffi than just cffi i think

Once you inisialise CLIM, it'll load the libs and create references to the native librarie4s.

Well, it's because a native pointer into a library is not valid after a dump is loaded.

In theory you can detect this and reload the library after loading a dump, but it's a huge ahassle.

looking at its code, it seems as though that one creates a process... But is that process still running by the time you dump?
