[Ecls-list] build-faiulre & dpp

[Sean Champ]

Hello.


DPP seemed to want to make 'foo-bar' when given 'foo_bar', although
g++ didn't seem to like 'foo-bar' as a symbol name. I'm wondering, now,
about the following lines in dpp.c :

248:	if (name[i] == '_')
249:		c[i] = '-';

295:	if (c == '_') c = '-';

343:	if (c == '_') c = '-';

..and about why we'd need to generate 

   #line 276
   cl_object copy-symbol(int narg, cl_object sym, ...)

when given what's in symbol.c



There were other problems with the build; I'm not sure how much of it has to
do with what dpp's made.  


So, what follows is some of what 'make' turned out, when it encountered
errors from g++ while trying to build ecl. I don't know what to make of it,
myself, besides the questions about dpp.


This was done on a Debian 3.0 installation, using gcc/g++ 2.95.4


The ecl sources were updated from the ecl trunk, today
