Summary: Allegro List fixes & small Chicken Scheme fix

Initial Comment:
The generator module for Chicken Scheme seems to have a small bug. On our Debian etch system, it is necessary
to add #include <assert.h> by hand to the c++ file generated by SWIG. The problem can be easily solved by
adding the include line to chicken.swg.

The generator module for Allegro Lisp seems to be quite broken, especially for c++. 
First of all, it is not possible to specify absolute path names for the input file because the path for the
common lisp output file is generated wrong, based on the input file path. 
Further, when generating bindings from a c++ library, the resulting c++ binding file cannot be compiled
due to a missing condition for methods with no return value in the generator module. In the try-block, a
return expression is still created.
The lispification-function in allegrocl.swg also behaves strange. It inserts a '-' whenever a change
from lowercase to uppercase is detected in a symbol name, but also when a change from uppercase to
lowercase is detected. This is wrong and leads to e.g. the following symbol names: The method 'open' of
class Bottle is transformed to bottle_open without lispification and with lispification to b-ottle-open.

Apart from these issues, the generated lisp file cannot be compiled in some cases, when some type synonyms
cannot be resolved, which leads to empty lines in the lisp code. Further, template classes are causing
problems because of the class renaming done in these cases.
This can be fixed by changing the lisp-function full-name to take into account type synonyms.

Attached, you find a patch to fix all of these issues.
It was made against SVN revision 10659.

Best regards,
Lorenz

Ok, I committed this patch in 10726.  I am not really familiar with
allegro cl and had no way to test it, but looking at the changes they look
ok.

Also, I notice now that the chicken test suite spits out a whole bunch of
warnings... the output of make check-chicken-test-suite used to be so clean
:(  Will have to clean up the warnings.
