I have not had a lot of experience building Racket from source, but I downloaded the minimal racket source and followed the instructions on the readme. The configure step seems to encounter no problems, but when I run make afterwards, it gets to the step of "Compiling xform support... Done making xform-collects." Then the build just hangs. xform.rkt is running like mad in the background, which seems to be the proximate culprit. At first I thought I was just being impatient, it's only a ~500MHz processor, but I let it run all weekend and there was no apparent progress.
Can someone help me troubleshoot this? What information can I provide that would be helpful? Thanks, Deren
