Hello,
I'm trying to rebuild Maxima (cvs version of about 2003/11/28)
with GCL 2.6.0cvs-1 (a tar ball date 2003/07/16, most recent
one I could find at savannah.gnu.org).
That GCL can't load defsystem.lisp r1.12 -- it dies with:
Error: "COMMON-LISP" is not of type (LISP:OR LISP:SYMBOL LISP:STRING
...).
(BTW is that a bug in defsystem.lisp r1.12 ?)
So I went back to defsystem.lisp r1.11 and GCL can load that OK.
When I execute make, it goes along for a while, then stops with:
Loading binary-gcl/numerical/f2cl-lib.o
sqrt is undefined
Error: Cannot get relocated section contents
I type "(quit)" and then it goes along some more, and stops with:
Loading binary-gcl/command-line.o
Error: #<@084E7000> is not of type LIST.
After "(quit)" it goes into the texinfo stuff.
f2cl-lib.lisp (r1.5) is up to date, but there is a more recent
command-line.lisp, so I got that. The newer version (r1.2)
has the same problem.
Is there an easy way to patch f2cl-lib.lisp and command-line.lisp
to make GCL happy?
I looked through the mailing list archives but I wasn't able
to identify any solutions. Thanks for any information.
Robert Dodier
