[gambit-list] Compilation errors when trying to build Gambit on Debian Stable

This issue was fixed yesterday (commit 6f5b2058eeff6b1fbbd2c282d4e040182478da8f) for Ubuntu, and I would expect this to also fix the issue on Debian.  Perhaps you made a clone just before the issue was fixed.  Could you try again?

It seems that renameat2 is only accessible through “syscall” on Ubuntu and maybe it is the same with Debian: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41655386/no-renameat2-system-call-function-on-ubuntu-16-04
