I'm afraid there isn't much documentation on porting to new systems, at
least not yet. GCL is currently unmaintained. If you are having trouble
porting it for use with Maxima, you might be better off trying to build
Maxima with clisp. Unfortunately, that, too, is basically undocumented.
We are working hard to make Maxima build and operate cleanly with clisp
and other ANSI Lisps for the forthcoming 6.0 release, but we aren't
there yet.
In the meantime, to compile maxima with clisp, you should cd to the src
directory, type "make clisp-compile" then ask this list when you get
stuck.
