Shall I declare GCL dead? I haven't been able to compile it in years, debian has dropped it, etc. Therefore I haven't been able to test ASDF 2.26 with it. (GCL 2.6 isn't ANSI-compliant enough to compile it, and the latest 2.7.0 binary I could use had a multiple value bug that broke ASDF.)
If on a semi-recent debian or ubuntu amd64 box I checkout from gcl from CVS and configure it as follows: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/stow/gcl --enable-ansi --enable-readline --enable-locbfd --disable-statsysbfd I get the following error log: make[1]: Leaving directory `/X/Fahree/home/fare/src/gcl-head/unixport' cd unixport && echo '(time (let ((*features* (cons :pre-gcl *features*)))(load "boot.lisp")))' | ./saved_pre_gcl GCL (GNU Common Lisp) 2.7.0 CLtL1 Nov 23 2012 22:46:59 Source License: LGPL(gcl,gmp,pargcl), GPL(unexec,bfd,xgcl) Binary License: GPL due to GPL'ed components: (XGCL BFD UNEXEC) Modifications of this banner must retain notice of a compatible license Dedicated to the memory of W.
