[Gcl-devel] Re: Error compiling gcl-2.6.3 on Solaris 8

[Andrew F. Seila]

Thanks for the quick reply!  I tried both sets of configuration options
below, but got the same response - an error following the message "Loading
../tkl.o"  The "suggestions" were slightly different - 

[memory may be damaged] 

this time.

Could the problem be associated with the fact that my installation of
tcl/tk was a binary from Sunfreeware, rather than compiling and installing
myself?  Another thought was that this could be a 32-bit vs. 64-bit issue.

If I need to generate more debugging output to help resolve this issue,
please tell me how to do it.

I would appreciate any suggestions!

Thanks.
