emerge gcl gives the attached output Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Created attachment 39799 [details] Output from emerge gcl
Created attachment 39800 [details] Output from emerge info
I had a gut feeling that this was caused by USE=hardened. So I tried removing 'hardened' and recompiled first gcc then gcl. It works. I thereby feel that it is proven that it is the 'hardened' version of gcc that conflicts with gcl. See also Bug 65215.
Hi Ole. Hardened options cause problems for almost all the Common Lisp implementations I am aware of. Thanks for confirming it on GCL though.
