William, Do you recall why you explicity set the following option:
./makemake --without-dynamic-ffi ... in clisp-2.41.p11/spkg-install ? Is it required for some other parts of Sage? For the purposes of building the full version of Axiom using clisp it is necessary to allow '--with-dynamic-ffi'. Regards, Bill Page.
