Greetings! Given this unless anyone objects I will backout the readlinkat configure workaround and fail the build if readlinkat is not found. We would need a workable substitution if we wanted a workaround in any case and do not have one yet.
BTW, axiom, acl2, maxima, hol88, and fricas are all supported by gcl 2.6.14 across all Debian/Ubuntu platforms at present. I expect some issues with 2.7 given the magnitude of changes, but the fricas developers have said they have already tried it with success. I have an old mac virtualbox which I never use except at the last point in gcl releases. Nonetheless I have fired it up, and run into the problem that sed cannot put newlines into the replacement text. You guys are surely past this point. I know next to nothing about macosx versions and software installations -- perhaps you could point me to a hopefully painless way to upgrade this virtualbox image to the latest reasonable without destroying it.
