       Thanks for this very detailed explanation !

  I was actually led to think it was possible because of this (from
apropos-window.lisp): 

(defclass apropos-window-controller (ns:ns-window-controller)
  ((apropos-array :foreign-type :id :initform +null-ptr+
                  :reader apropos-array
                  [...]

Of course, the actual initform value seemed to me somewhat redundant
with what I read from the doc (the site seems to be back online) and
from your replay (+null-ptr+ *is* what you call "binary 0" right ?).
