Hello *,
I am trying to understand what's happening.
In a freshly-unpacked maxima-5.14.0 directory, I created binary-gcl,
binary-gcl/numerical, and binary-gcl/numerical/slatec subdirectories. Then
grozin at laptop ~/maxima-5.14.0 $ cd src
grozin at laptop ~/maxima-5.14.0/src $ gcl

So, the error happens when calling (compiler::emit-fn t). From where does
this specific path /usr/lib/gcl-2.6.8/xgcl-2/../cmpnew/gcl_collectfn.o
appear? It certainly is not present in ../lisp-utils/defsystem.lisp. It
seems that it's hardcoded somewhere in gcl. Can somebody help me to find
this place?
