Isn't CL better for this? You are not bound to some VM and you can produce native binaries.

I can't really say. I know you can (for example) use LispWorks to write CL for mobile, targeting both - Android and iOS, but I think there would be greater friction to keep it cross-platform, each platform's nuances would have to be handled differently, it's not going to be very unified codebase (I think).
