i suspect you would find most lisp interpreters to be portable across
unix systems for various architectures, but fewer of them would port to
other OSs. [i remember an early version of kyoto common lisp ported to
vms no less, and heard ibm 370 was mentioned too. presumably, it would
port to p9 in a day... :)]

if you use "lisp" to mean something more general than common lisp, you
may want to try various scheme implementations. [i know kernighan used
Matthias's "vscm" recently in his "Trials of Timing" paper; it is a clean
and compact scheme, and may have been already ported to p9.] see the scheme
repository: http://www.cs.indiana.edu/scheme-repository for many
implementations to chose from.
