[MIT-Scheme-devel] Problem Compiling Scheme in Solaris 2.9

[Blai Bonet]

Hello all,

I am having problems when compiling MIT/GNU Scheme for 
Solaris 2.9.

1) I am trying to compile ver. 7.7.90 since the link to 7.7.1
   source code is broken:

  http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mit-scheme/stable.pkg/7.7.1/mit-scheme-7.7.1.tar.gz

2) I am using gcc ver 3.3 and the standard solaris install.
   The configure utility breaks with:

  checking how to run the C preprocessor... (cached) $gcc -E
  configure: error: C preprocessor "$gcc -E" fails sanity check
  configure: error: ./configure failed for microcode

3) I patched configure in order to skip this. Later, I received:

  configuring in compiler
  running /bin/sh ./configure  --prefix=/opt/sfw --cache-file=.././config.cache
 --srcdir=.
  ./configure: test: argument expected
  configure: error: ./configure failed for compiler

4) I also patched this. Then, configure finish. When doing make I get:

  gcc -DMIT_SCHEME -DDEFAULT_LIBRARY_PATH=\"/opt/sfw/lib/mit-scheme\" 
-DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.  -g -O2 -Wall  -c extern.c
  make[1]: *** No rule to make target `cmpintmd.h', needed by `fasload.o'.  
Stop.
  make[1]: Leaving directory `/space/bonet/mit-scheme-7.7.90/src/microcode'

5) give up!


please, help!

thanks.
