Thank you Marc. Those are all better solutions than my wrapper function.
I can confirm that it is a bug in the C-interface which occurs with opaque types (such as (c-define-type foo "foo")), and "struct" and "union" types when the body of the c-lambda is inline code (the case where the c-lambda body is a function name is handled correctly).

I'll work on a fix.
In the meantime, you can use one of the styles given in the attached example.
