A little update about GCL: I was able to build fricas with
newer GCL. However, ATM the result is unusable. Namely
FriCAS used to overwrite GCL error handler with its own.
Something in GCL changed and this does no longer work.
I was able to build FriCAS disabling our error handler,
but as result any error goes into GCL debugger, so from
point of view of naive user FriCAS is unusable. And
our tests depend on error handling so I am unable to
test if there is any other breakage.
Bottom line is that ATM building with GCL does not
work. I must admit that I consider declaring GCL
as unsupported: I would prefer not to dig into GCL
internals to find out what changed in error handling
and how to install our handler. If ANSI support in
GCL is good enough we could try to install error
handler in ANSI way (this is how we handle other
implementations). But I did not try this.
