You're not doing anything wrong.
This is a timestampe issue introduced recently when noweb was
unpackage in the source tree. I should really fix that.
Here is how you can work around that:
# from the top directory of the Axiom build-improvements branch
# bring the timestamp up to date
% (cd noweb/src/c/ && touch *.h *.c)
# now issue make as usual
% make
| While I'm at it, one more question. I have gcl 2.6.7 installed. It is

If gcl is visible from your PATH, then configure will pick it by
default and use it. I have not tried gcl in ansi mode yet.
But, you can also convince Axiom's configure NOT to use the gcl from
your path (even if it found it): add --without-gcl to your configure
command line.

| think, is this branch ready for packaging?
one of the reasons why this branch was created was to make it
"distro-package friendly". At the moment, I believe it supports the
traditional "./configure && make && make install", so it should be
ready for packaging. However, it does not support cross-compilation
for deeper reasons.

It would be great if you could help in that regard!
