| If you mean to say a "real" language needs all of Common Lisp, then you
| must not consider "C" or "Scheme" or "Dylan" to be a "real" language
| because they don't have all this stuff that CL has.

  I think you have answered your own question (why are there third-party
  tools vendors for other languages, but not Common Lisp?): the other
  languagages are in fact seriously incomplete without third-party tools
  vendors.
