I can build and test stuff only on x86. wxmaxima-0.7.4 is rather experimental - it now uses wxGTK-2.8, not 2.6. Therefore, I feeled I can only write ~x86. But now I included ~amd64 for convenience of those who would like to try it on amd64 (and tell me the result).

Good news: there is an overlay http://repo.or.cz/w/gentoo-lisp-overlay.git which contains gcl-2.6.7-r6 ebuild. This ebuild produces a working gcl, and I can build maxima with it. Now waiting when a broken ebuild in the tree will be replaced by this working one.

(By the way, gcl is the only common lisp which builds and works on all Debian architectures, there are 14 or something about that of them.)

Ah ... OK ... I'll test it tonight. On a related note (I forget the bug number) I built Axiom Silver November 2007 from the upstream tarball yesterday. It builds its own gcl, and the version of gcl 2.6.8 that it uses doesn't work on AMD64. 2.6.7 does work.
