| Yeah, most of those conditionals are what make the C code hard to port.
no harder than the lisp non-portable sutff all over the place in the
Axiom source code. I don't think we have a perfect language match
here in terms of portability. I've coded for longtime in C and C++; I
don't think this particular is stuff is handled the proper way.

Please, no. Lisp does not look more portable than C to me.
