Greetings! There is something wrong with sgc, I think minor. One can trigger and help debug if desired using the simple command (typep 0 'standard-object) in a fresh compiler::link'ed image interspersed with calls to (si::gbc t) This is the lisp in build/i686.../bin/ I'll try to fix this soon.

2007-06-24 Thread Gabriel Dos Reis
Hi, Giving a conventional version numbering x.y.z is not exclusing of giving the build time. In fact none of them is completely accurate and unambiguous for all purposes. They can be seen complimentary. It can also be checked that several software out there give both types of versioning. Th
