If you can get GCL to build it would be a big help. It would be an even bigger help if you could get Axiom to build as Axiom has "portable (guffaw) C code". > I am sorry you find the Mac difficult to use.

The problem is the same one I'm having with the FreeBSD port. The C include files have a completely different tree than the Linux files. t _______________________________________________ Axiom-developer mailing list Axiom-developer@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/axiom-developer
