Hi,

I'm struggling with the compilation of GNU GCL 2.4.0 under IRIX 6.5.11
(on my
R4400 Indigo2). After some corrections to various source files, I got to
the point
where unixport/raw_gcl has been created. However, raw_gcl < foo (see
makefile)
results in termination code 139 (a segment violation).

I traced the problem to /o/alloc.c (add_page_to_freelist, where the
function's
*p argument is cast to <object>).

Has anyone succeeded in compiling GCL 2.4.0 under IRIX 6.5.x? If so,
what did
you do?

Any help/hint is highly appreciated.

Please email me at <·····@opec.org>.

Thanks all.

Hi, Oskar

This  week I had the same problem in building GCL-2.4.0 under
NT with the cygwin-tools. I increased the value of MAXPAGE in

h/cmpinclude.h
h/gclincl.h
o/cmpinclude.h

fom 32*1024 to 256*1024 and it seems to work.

good luck
matthias

DOes your gcl as compiled with cygwin load compiled lisp files? It did
not do this for me in gcl-2.3.8 so i abandoned my compilation efforts
with that version!
