[Gcl-devel] Is GCL being maintained?

Shall I declare GCL dead?

I haven't been able to compile it in years, debian has dropped it, etc.
Therefore I haven't been able to test ASDF 2.26 with it.
(GCL 2.6 isn't ANSI-compliant enough to compile it,
and the latest 2.7.0 binary I could use had a multiple value bug that
broke ASDF.)

If on a semi-recent debian or ubuntu amd64 box I checkout from gcl
from CVS and configure it as follows:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/stow/gcl --enable-ansi
--enable-readline --enable-locbfd --disable-statsysbfd

I get the following error log:

make[1]: Leaving directory `/X/Fahree/home/fare/src/gcl-head/unixport'
cd unixport && echo '(time (let ((*features* (cons :pre-gcl
*features*)))(load "boot.lisp")))' | ./saved_pre_gcl

Use (help) to get some basic information on how to use GCL.
