dev-lisp:clisp-2.43:20071119-155737.log HPPA

With --without-dynamic-ffi instead of --with-dynamic-ffi, configure does not
fail on HPPA.

In gentoo-x86/profiles/default-linux/hppa/package.use.mask:
# Jeroen Roovers <jer@gentoo.org> (19 Nov 2007)
# This pulls in dev-scheme/drscheme which needs gjc to build
# or dev-lisp/clisp which has many build issues
dev-lang/swig mzscheme clisp

wrong bug and drscheme does NOT use gcj

2.44.1-r1 fails differently on sparc

I can force it to build using
CFLAGS='-O1 -mcpu=ultraspaec3 -pipe -DSPARC64'  (thanks to aballier for the
suggestion).  But then it gets to this:
==============================
mkdir data
cd data && ln -s ../../utils/unicode/UnicodeDataFull.txt .
cd data && ln -s ../../doc/Symbol-Table.text .
gcc -O1 -pipe -mcpu=ultrasparc3 -DSPARC64 -W -Wswitch -Wcomment -Wpointer-arith
-Wimplicit -Wreturn-type -Wmissing-declarations -Wno-sign-compare -O
-falign-functions=4 -DUNICODE -DDYNAMIC_FFI -DDYNAMIC_MODULES -I. -Wl,-O1  -x
none -Wl,-export-dynamic spvw.o spvwtabf.o spvwtabs.o spvwtabo.o eval.o

./lisp.run -B . -N locale -E UTF-8 -Epathname 1:1 -Emisc 1:1 -norc -m 2MW -lp
../src/ -x '(and (load "../src/init.lisp") (sys::%saveinitmem) (ext::exit))
(ext::exit t)'
make: *** [interpreted.mem] Segmentation fault
========================================

When this builds, with or without -DSPARC64, we see a huge number of unpleasant
warnings, such as:
../src/lispbibl.d:14948: warning: right shift count >= width of type
../src/lispbibl.d:14948: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different
size

warnings about assigning two global variables to the same register at the same
time, assigned registers wiped out by various procedure calls, and so on.

Does clisp-2.48 still have the same failure?
