[gambit-list] Building Gambit-C on a Sharp Zaurus

Hi all,

I am trying to build Gambit (4.0 b7) on a Sharp Zaurus C3100. This is
a handheld computer running Linux (2.4.20 kernel) on an ARM processor
(Intel XScale at 415 Mhz) with 128Mb RAM. It should be perfectly
capable of both building and running Gambit - for example I have
previously built the full OCaml stack using GCC running onboard the
device.

Unfortunately I am having some issues. "configure" and "make" work
without any problems, although I have to avoid the
"--enable-single-host" option. However "make check" immediately fails
with the following error:

------------ TEST 1 (debugging support)
../gsi/gsi -f debug.scm > test1.out
*** ERROR IN check, "debug.scm"@82.29 -- (Argument 1) VECTOR expected
(vector->list #\u0301)
make[1]: *** [test1] Error 70
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/zaurus/build/gambc40b17/tests'


Can anybody offer me enlightenment?

Many thanks
Neil
