Subject: Can't build Maxima because I can't build GCL...

Hi.
I'd like to use Maxima, but I can't build GCL (2.6.7). This is the
problem :
I've got a hard time compiling GCL-2.6.7 (Linux (Linux From Scratch),
DualCore, Gcc 4.2.3, Glibc 2.7). The build is stuck on a segfault, caused
by a buggy malloc, Gentoo bugtracking list dixit :
Building symbol table for /sources/gcl-2.6.7/unixport/raw_pre_gcl ..
Unrecoverable error: Segmentation violation..
/bin/sh: line 1: 13485
Abandon /sources/gcl-2.6.7/unixport/raw_pre_gcl /sources/gcl-2.6.7/unixport/
-libdir /sources/gcl-2.6.7/ < foo make[1]: *** [saved_pre_gcl] Erreur 134
rm raw_pre_gcl make[1]: quittant le r?pertoire
? /sources/gcl-2.6.7/unixport ? make: *** [unixport/saved_pre_gcl] Erreur

I don't quite understand all the workarounds provided by the Gentoo list,
as they are quite contradictory. Can someone help me compile this
package ? I need it badly for Maxima.
\bye
PS : it used to compile quite fine on my previous installation... But I
didn't write down the process, and now the hard drive is gone back to its
creator !
