My most heartfelt appreciation go to all of you gentlemen. I downloaded the
binary mentioned below, added the :linkage-table feature and performed a
regular build. To my utter shock, it worked. I then replaced the lisp
kernel and core and re-built my application. I am pleased to report that
the recursive tail call now compiles correctly.
Thank you all!
