OK, I suspect a lot of this might be because I'm using Gentoo Linux,
but I'm having some problems with Maxima. I've successfully compiled
today's cvs maxima on CMUCL 18e, yesterdays cvs clisp, and yesterdays
cvs gcl ansi build, which is good. But some things have gone wonky:
yesterdays sbcl cvs building maxima fails with the following - not sure
if this is a maxima problem or an sbcl issue?:
; - Loading binary file "binary-sbcl/mdebug.fasl"
; loading #P"/home/user/maxima/src/binary-sbcl/mdebug.fasl"
debugger invoked on condition of type SB-INT:SIMPLE-PROGRAM-ERROR in
thread 8379:
execution of a form compiled with errors:
#'(SB-INT:NAMED-LAMBDA GRAB-LINE-NUMBER
(LI STREAM)
(DECLARE (TYPE (VECTOR #) LI))
(BLOCK GRAB-LINE-NUMBER (COND (# #))))
Within the debugger, you can type HELP for help. At any command prompt
(within
the debugger or not) you can type (SB-EXT:QUIT) to terminate the SBCL
executable. The condition which caused the debugger to be entered is
bound to
SB-DEBUG:*DEBUG-CONDITION*. You can suppress this message by clearing
SB-DEBUG:*DEBUG-BEGINNER-HELP-P*.
restarts (invokable by number or by possibly-abbreviated name):
0: [CONTINUE] Continue anyway (skipping to toplevel read/eval/print
loop).
1: [QUIT ] Quit SBCL (calling #'QUIT, killing the process).
("top level form (SB-IMPL::%DEFUN (QUOTE MAXIMA::GRAB-LINE-NUMBER)
(SB-INT:NAMED-LAMBDA MAXIMA::GRAB-LINE-NUMBER # ...) ...)")[:TOPLEVEL]
0]
Also, when trying to embed Maxima sessions into TeXmacs using 1.0.2.4,
the cmucl image outputs tex on the command line rather than back to
TeXmacs, gcl doesn't seem to send any input or output text at all, and
clisp lists a very large number of warnings about things being
redefined. Has anyone else observed these behaviors?
