I have now removed part of old GCL-specific code. This probably
means that FriCAS can not be build with GCL versions earlier
than GCL-2.6.13. On plus side, after that one gets sensible
error messages and one can do build from Lisp files. Algebra
bootstrap fails, I have tracked problem to missing or wrong
DATABASE property on |BasicType|. This probably indicates
some deeper problem.
Running testsuite on FriCAS build from Lisp files shows one
failure: apparently FriCAS on GCL can not catch numeric errors.
Also, FriCAS now uses ANSI Lisp code instead of old GCL-specific
code, so this requires enough ANSI support in GCL. I only tried
ANSI GCL, I do not know if "traditional" GCL would work.
BTW: The following gets around problem with loading to large
heap. I am not sure if this is right solution:
