I was interested to see whether Clasp could run fricas0 since one of
the selling points for Clasp is the ability to directly and easily
link with c++ libraries. Apparently Clasp can run maxima. See
Actually I have tested Clasp with its 1.0.0 release. And I have
some local patches with ugly hacks that makes clasp able to
compile fricas (loading fricas0 is no problem, of course).
A few problems so far:
1. Clasp compilation is very slow. (and results in huge object files)
2. Clasp runtime speed is not that great. (but it can do parallel
compilcation)
3. The dumping (save-lisp-and-die) is the main problem. Seems that
it dumps snapshot instead of executable.
4. Still some errors when running src/input tests.
Basically the following code solves many issues.
I'll put more Clasp support to fricas0 later, then to fricas.
(I think I'll do ABCL first.)
