Re: [Gcl-devel] Additional structure tests added

[Camm Maguire]

Greetings!  I've traced this segfault so far down to the compilation
of 

(defun structure-type-internal-slotds (type)
   (si::s-data-slot-descriptions (get type 'si::s-data))
  )

in pcl/impl/gcl-low.lisp.  I hope to have it resolved soon, but am
running too much interference these days with other work.  There is a
discrepancy between the way the slot-descriptions and the
slot-position, for example, are handled by the compiler.

More later,
