[Openmcl-devel] Error compiling CLEM on clozure/ppc32

[Daniel Herring]

Hi,

I recently announced a new collection of lisp libraries[1].  One user 
tried it, but got an error [below] that I don't have the hardware to 
replicate.

Could someone briefly explain what's going on?  Is there a workaround, or 
should I disable compilation of clem on clozure/ppc32?

Thanks,
Daniel

Subject: [LibCL-devel] Trying Clozure on MACOSX PPC

Just tried Clozure CL 1.3-r12755M  (DarwinPPC32). I had to change
  (require :asdf-binary-locations)
to
  (asdf:load-system :asdf-binary-locations)
in my initialisation file to get things going.

Unfortunately I then got (after lots of other compilation messages):

;Compiler warnings for 
"/usr/local/lisp/libcl-2009-09-01-alpha/clem/src/scale.lisp" :

and I've really no idea what that means! Any Ideas?
