 But do they work for you ?

 In my i686 vm I found that adding '--with-debug' to configure, plus
using 'ulimit -s unlimited' allowed the tests to pass
(LFS-svn-20141124, BLFS from 20141127), but neither option on its
own was sufficient.

 However, using the same versions of everything on a real x86_64
machine, the tests fail really quickly (less than 2 minutes) whereas
in the past they dragged on for ages before failing.

 Also, clisp is only here to support xindy - both debian and fedora
have variations of a patch re fairly-recent glibc (eglibc, for
debian, where it is described as fixing a _build_ failure).  I tried
the debian version, just in case it helped with my i686 xindy
problem (it didn't), but maybe I should accept that clisp is a
general, if rather exotic, tool and some sort of patch ought to go
in : it is always difficult to justify a patch without an example of
what is broken.
