[Gcl-devel] Package issue with compiled file in GCL (GNU Common Lisp) 2.7.0 ANSI (latest CVS sources)

[Dan Corkill]

A compiled *.o file of the following simple test file will not load into 
a freshly started GCL (Error in EVAL [or a callee]: The package named 
MY-PKG, does not exist):

;;; --------------------------

(eval-when (:compile-toplevel :load-toplevel :execute)
  (unless (find-package :my-pkg)
    (defpackage :my-pkg
      (:use :common-lisp))))

(in-package :my-pkg)

(defun foo () nil)

;;; --------------------------

The third form in the file is required to trigger the premature package 
lookup error.  Again, apologies if this is a well-known GCL issue...
