[Openmcl-devel] Error: can't dump a typed pointer, building IDE

[John McAleely]

I've just upgraded my Mac to Snow leopard. It's possible that is the  
cause of the problem I'm reporting, but the error seems odd for that.

When rebuilding the IDE from a script with this command:

         echo "(require 'cocoa-application)" | ccl -n

I get:

1 > Welcome to Clozure Common Lisp Version 1.4-dev-r12925M-trunk

The same diagnostic is produced by the 64 bit version.

The same script was building ccl @ r12921M fine, but that was  
yesterday on Leopard...

Have I broken my install during my upgrade, or is there a bug in the  
trunk? (Rebuilding ccl & its kernel seems to go well on my machine)
