[cl-debian] Bug#385745: gclcvs: weird asdf method errors in c-l-c image

[Faré]

Subject: gclcvs: weird asdf method errors in c-l-c image
Package: gclcvs
Version: 2.7.0-55
Severity: important

*** Please type your report below this line ***
Using GCL_ANSI=t, if I ever try to use asdf (as compiled into gclcvs by c-l-c),
I get the following error:

> (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :split-sequence)

No matching method for the generic-function #<compiled-closure
ASDF::VERSION-SATISFIES>,
when called with arguments (:SPLIT-SEQUENCE NIL).

Apparently, the (find-system :split-sequence) (see the source for operate)
returned :split-sequence, which is erroneous. But when you try to
> (find-system :split-sequence)
at the REPL, you also get

No matching method for the generic-function #<compiled-closure
ASDF:COMPONENT-NAME>,
when called with arguments (:SPLIT-SEQUENCE).


It looks like there is a bug in the way CLOS methods are compiled
by GCL 2.7.0 and/or in the way that c-l-c builds its gcl image,
because when you reload asdf.lisp (and re-define run-shell-command as in
/usr/lib/common-lisp/bin/gclcvs.sh), then everything works much better.
