[Gcl-devel] Re: Debian axiom build failures

[Camm Maguire]

Greetings!  This is a broken alternate linking build procedure we
introduced for axiom 2005 on systems where native object relocation is
not yet implemented in GCL.  For 2.6.8pre, this is ia64, hppa, mips,
mipsel, and alpha.  For 2.7.0 just ia64 and hppa remain.
:native-reloc is the relevant feature.  Here is the patch to the
makeint.lisp and makedep.lis stage that we had used, which for some
reason now is missing some file:

THere is one other small area where compiler:link is used but I do not
suspect that.  Can you perhaps spot the missing functionality from the
error message, and give me a hint as to what load is missing?
Specifically, the last autoload in the message I originally sent
(preprocess?), seems to be linked into depsys, but not AXIOMsys.
Could be a red herring.

Thanks for any insight.  I'll figure it out if you are busy.

Take care,
