Ian, those failure test set looks similar to that in jandroid reported by
Paul. Most of them are NaN failures. Not that it failed to detect nan
results, but it faithfully reported nan for those cases that J defined to
be 0. You can run test one by one to verify what had gone wrong. eg.
RUN1 'g030'
|NaN error
| 0=_ *-~0j5
|[-133] /storage/emulated/0/My Documents/JTests/g030.ijs
My workaround is use gcc instead of clang to build. Please try RUN1 on g030
and gnan, etc.
also try execute
0 * {. _ 1j1
0 +/ . * _
1 ^. 0 1 2
they should give 0 instead of NaN. see

your txt attachment was accepted.
Apparent it checks mimetype only, you may also rename some ijs file as txt
file to send.

@Bill, can I please take up your offer of help?
I now have an executable (jconsole) that superficially works, but fails
these tests:
g030 g110 g130i g200 g201 g300 g411 g420 g430a2 g431
g600ip g8x g9x gct
gi gnan go goi gos gparse gpco2 gq201 gsp130 gsp420
gsp530n gspx gt
Do any of these raise your eyebrows at this stage?
During the test I got 12 of these errors:
————————————————————
jconsole(1061,0x7fff74206000) malloc: ***
mach_vm_map(size=2251799813685248) failed (error code=3)
*** error: can't allocate region
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
————————————————————
I attach the "Terminal Saved Output.txt" of my build session
(renamed: iac-j806-make-24APR17-00-18.txt),
in case some of these fails are due to my blunders.
(This attachment may get stripped off. If so, ask for it and I'll upload it
to my own site.)
