[Gcl-devel] Re: Axiom-developer post from address@hidden requires approval

[root]

Magnus,


Another possibility has occured to me. The Axiom build creates a
GCL lisp image (with some Axiom code added) and saved as an 
executable named "Lisp", then it compiles the boot compiler, loads
it and saves it as an executable called "bootsys". Next it compiles
apply.clisp. It seems odd that so much compiling/linking happens
without error until the bootsys image is run. It appears that
bootsys must not have been saved properly. That means that the
save-system function is failing. You could try this:

start obj/linux/bin/lisp
compile a simple foo.lisp file
load it.
(system::save-system "newlisp")
start newlisp
compile foo.lisp

If this fails it means that save-system is broken.
