Re: [Axiom-developer] Axiom cvs 040624 build error

[Camm Maguire]

Greetings, and thanks!

This is due to an old gcl somehow havving gotten its way into axiom.

Just did a cvs axiom checkout on Andrey's machine, and see the
following in the top of lsp/gcl-2.6.2/debian/changelog:

gcl (2.6.1-26) unstable; urgency=low

  * Rework compiler::*ld-libs*, compiler::link, and unixport/makefile to
    accomodate mingw need for firstfile.o and lastfile.o
  * Remove incompatible -fomit-frame-pointer when compiling with -pg
    profiling
  * Load sys-proclaim.lisp files forimproved linking and smaller object
    size across the board, install same for use with compiler::link
  * Use pathnames instead of strings in compiler::link, also in image
    init files, for Windows
  * small mod to unixport/makefile re filtering of firstfile and
    lastfile
  * Backport zero divisor error cnditions from HEAD for
    floor,ceiling,truncate
  * Default to debug mode on hppa to work around gcc compiler
    optimization bugs

gcl (2.6.1-25) unstable; urgency=low

This is several versions (about 5 months) behind the 2.6.2 release,
which should look like:

gcl (2.6.2-1) unstable; urgency=high

  * gcc-3.4 support
  * Proper isnormal default courtesy of Magnus Henoch
  * gclclean makefile target and other small makefile changes
  * Proper check for C stack array body address in gbc.c and sgbc.c
  * New upstream release
  * acconfig.h update for isnormal default
  * Fix bug in setting elements (si::aset) of 0 rank arrays uncovered by
    the random tester
  * No -fomit-frame-pointer on mingw
  * Backport minimal ansi-test patches from HEAD to enable running of
    the random tester
  * installed tcl/tk patch for mingw
  * Fix banner license detection code in lsp/gcl_mislib.lsp as
    8features* entries are now keywords
  * o/makefile changes to work around trailing slash -I arguments gcc
    bug on mingw
  * Patch to mingwin.c:fix_filename to close long standing 'maxima
    ignore-errors filename corruption' bug on mingw
  * Check for too large rank supplied to make-array1
  * Fix potential stack overwrite bug in quick_call_sfun/eval.c
  * Add -mprferred-stack-boundary=8 on amd64, as constant integers used
    in a call must be retrievable with va_arg(,fixnum)
  * Revert preferred-stack-boundary option on amd64 as it does not play
    well with external libraries, also eliminate -m64 to allow for user
    settings.  Cast fixnum constant C arguments in gcl_cmploc.lsp
    explicitly to (long) to ensure they can be extracted via
    va_arg(,fixnum)
  * reenable SA_SIGINFO on amd64 to restore SGC there
  * Include elf.h in FreeBSD.h
  * Allow for elf_abi.h in FreeBSD.h
  * Add README.openbsd file
  * readme.mingw updates
  * solaris.h updates for custreloc option
  * Close possibility of malloc failure due to intervening gbc arising
    from the misordering of allocation calls
  * C_GC_OFFSET is 2 on m68k-linux
  * Add release notes, remove gcl document presumably based on dpANS for
    now
  * Fixup bad extern declaration of signals_handled in usig.c

I've verified the crash with the axiom patched old gcl version, and
verified that stock gcl-2.6.2 does not show the crash on the same
machine.  I can obviously look further to see if the older version is
to blame or the axiom patches, but its probably most efficient at this
point to get the right source tree in place.  In any case, the
transparent Fedora support was added after this point, so we really
want this in for axiom.

Could not complete the axiom build on Andrey's machine with stock
2.6.2 due to a system misconfiguration:

SYS= linux
LSP= /home/axiom/axiom/lsp
PART= cprogs
SPAD= /home/axiom/axiom/mnt/linux

Take care,
