The first thing to check is to comment out the ONLY_FOR_ARCH stuff in the port Makefile and see where the build fails. Sometimes a newer version starts working on a previously excluded architecture, and it takes a while for that to get noticed. If the build of your favorite lisp still fails, you'll have to dive into the source to see what's wrong. It might be something relatively easy to fix. Some familiarity with C is probably required, though. :-) > On Debian Linux 6.0.1a for SPARC, at least sbcl is available. > Maybe clisp as well, IIRC. In that case, check the patches that Debian uses on SPARC, and see if you can fix the FreeBSD port with those.
