Oh, a typical bootstrapping problem as seen in many implementations :-)
'configure' checks for mit-scheme, maybe it could also check for its version?

Thanks for your answers.

[MIT-Scheme-users] Installing 10.1.2 on Ubuntu 18.10

2018-11-03 Thread Sven Hartrumpf
Hi.

I am trying to install MIT Scheme 10.1.2 from mit-scheme-10.1.2.tar.gz.
(The pre-installed mit-scheme binary detected by configure is:
Release 9.1.1 || Microcode 15.3 || Runtime 15.7 || SF 4.41 || LIAR/x86-64 4.118 
|| Edwin 3.116 )
The make step fails as follows:

;  Generating SCode for file: "syntax-parser.scm" => "syntax-parser.bin"...
;Premature reference to reserved name: spar
;To continue, call RESTART with an option number:
; (RESTART 2) => Skip processing file 
/var/tmp/mit-scheme-10.1.2/src/runtime/syntax-parser.scm
; (RESTART 1) => Return to read-eval-print level 1.

2 error>
End of input stream reached.make: *** [Makefile:190: compile-runtime] Error 1

Greetings
Sven
