If you're using HP/UX 10.2 (or whatever version the old 18a release
was built from), it will be difficult. Best bet would be to
cross-compile from a current 19a.
If you're using a newer version of HP/UX, then it will be extremely
difficult because the internals in sigcontext's and such have changed
which means you have to modify a lot of cmucl code that deals with
such things.
I know Eric tried sometime back. I don't think he succeeded. I
played for a bit, but also didn't succeed. I don't think I have
access to such machines anymore.
Unless you really need a cmucl version, I'd consider sbcl, which might
work on HP/UX.
Sorry,
Ray
