Hi Camm.

| gcl (2.6.6-1) unstable; urgency=high
|
|   * New upstream release
|   * Allow .data section to be first in executable, as on solaris.  Also
|     allow for new bfd section size semantics
|   * Don't try to write map file when not using GNU ld.  Also allow
|     compile-file to process pathnames with whitespace on Windows
|   * Fix corner case fixnum arithmetic on 64bit machines
|   * Rework gmp_wrappers semantics for older gcc
|   * Explicitly mprotect loaded code pages PROT_EXEC on x86 Linux, as FC3
|     now requires it.
|   * lisp-implementation-version is GCL
|   * Reader extension patch allowing for foo::(bar foobar) semantics

I've checked in the following additions to this list:

        * a shell script variable fix in "unixport/makefile" for MSYS
        * __MINGW32__ malloc initialisation fix in "o/alloc.c"
        * Windows file/directory fixes in "o/unixfsys.c"
        * MinGW32 -march in configure - removes deprecation warnings
      * MinGW32 directory fix - "o/mingfile.c".

I believe that this fixes all Windows slip ups in 2.6.5 plus the full kit
and kaboodle for Axiom compilation other than the special mods Tim normally
rolls in.  I have yet to test this on any of Maxima, ACL2 or Axiom.

Cheers

Mike Thomas.
