Here is what I came up with:

1) test-program.script fails trying to find a file named

.../build/fasls/mkcl-1.1.9-xxx/asdf/test/hello-world-
example--all-systems.image

(where ... and xxx are place holders you can easily substitute)

what exists instead is

.../build/fasls/mkcl-1.1.9-xxx/asdf/test/hello-world-
example--all-systems.exe

which seems to be the expected executable corresponding to the
???--all-systems.image on unix.
(BTW, why is there such an "image" extension on unix/linux?)


2) test-run-program.script

.../uiop/launch-program.lisp is incomplete for MKCL on windows and needs to
be patched
as per attached file to be in any way functional in that context.
Once patched accordingly and applied to very latest MKCL repo master head
this test now passes.

Cheers,
