OK, this is what I know for now:

series 2.0.3:

It's working on:
  CMUCL 18b                                             (SuSE Linux
6.3/Intel)
  CMUCL 18c
(Solaris)                                 rtoy
  LispWorks 4.1                                           (Windows NT
4.0 SP6)
  clisp-99.01.08-21 with -a option                (SuSE Linux 6.3/Intel)

Compiles with:
  ACL 5.0.1 (SuSE Linux 6.3/Intel)

Does NOT compile with:
  GCL (DESTRUCTURING-BIND missing)           - Unsupported - GCL
maintainer must fix
  SBCL (CLTL1:COMPILER-LET  missing)         - Unsupported - Wouldn't it
be better if this was added to SBCL, not SERIES?

If anybody has other results, please follow up.

Thanks,

There's a problem with the MASK function that gives a segv and there's
a problem with two of the tests.

I've send bug reports to Franz and patches to work around them to
Raymond. It seems the version you started from missed these.

CMUCL 18b/FreeBSD: compiles OK. Falls over in test 294 (I think
I mean 294 not 293; 293 was the last number printed) saying

  | Type-error in KERNEL::OBJECT-NOT-LIST-ERROR-HANDLER:
  |    :FELL-THROUGH is not of type LIST
  |  
  | Restarts:
  |   0: [ABORT] Return to Top-Level.
  |  
  | Debug  (type H for help)
  |  
  | (SERIES::BASIC-DO-NEXT-IN #<error printing object>)
  | Source:
  | ; File: load:s-code.lisp
  | (CAR (GEN-STATE G))

This is a bug in CMUCL.  This bug was fixed in the last month or so, so
you'll have to compile a new version yourself to get this fixed.

Does it, in practice, affect anything other than SERIES?
If not, I'll wait until there's a lower-effort way of getting
a fixed version... :-)

I think I've seen it happen before, but not very often.
