Frank G. has gotten Portacello2 working on Linux/ACL. I have it working 
under Win32/Lispworks. I bet Solaris/Lispworks will be a snap. But I 
think the "install/build notes" are spread over the cello-devel mailing 
list. If you want to tackle the beast, ping me and i will core dump, 
hopefully by digging up past notes and creating a document. But if we 
can keep this informal until we have a truly portable system that will 
help. It is easy to respond to bug reports, but hard to write documentation.
