Subject: Problem with CMUCL - "os_invalidate.."???
Date: 
Message-ID: <CA5BqB.Kn9@newcastle.ac.uk>
The Computer Support Group (!) in my department have installed the CMU-CL
lisp system on one of our machines so that I can compile a public domain
part of speech tagger from Xerox. We have no lisp experts in our
department and unfortunately I get some strange error messages when
I try and compile. The CMU CL compiler was recommended by the people who
wrote the tagging program. Some of the code is reproduced below. I get the
impression that "os_invalidate" means something is wrong with the installation
and not the program. 

Can anyone please enlighten me as to the problem(s).

Huge thanks in advance.

Russell
