Ouch! So if I read you correclty, you mean I can't compile Axiom on my
Debian stable/gcc 2.95.4 powerpc machine? 

A possible workaround: could I compile Axiom, statically linked, on a
powerpc machine with gcc-3.3 and then execute it on my powerpc debian
stable?

Another possible workaround: would it work with gcl-2.5.2 on my debian
stable (gcc 2.95.4)?


While I'm asking questions on gcl, do I need to recompile everything
from scratch if I switch gcl version used to compile Axiom (from
gcl-2.5.2 -> gcl-2.6.1)?

Yours,
d.
