In general to compile wh-sandbox you need to do one of the following:

-- have gcl pre-installed on your machine (note that if you have gcl in
   a private directory you can tell configure where to find it)
-- copy gcl tree from build-improvements.

I will put this information into README.wh.  Also, for out of source
build the build just stopped -- I will investigate how to detect missing
gcl tree and give sensible error message (intead of the loop you were
seeing).
