juan thank you for the hard work getting ecl to comile with its gmp  
on the ppc/osx platform.
i am able to build ecl now, but unfortunately it cannot successfully   
run its tests and i can no longer compile my program. i dont get  
errors, the elc runtime just seems to get "stuck" in both cases. ive  
been waiting for a half hour and i dont think its coming back!
i wonder if this is some gc issue?

here is where ecl-test gets stuck:
;;; Warning: Redefining test |SET-SYNTAX-FROM-CHAR-TRAIT-X-NEWLINE|
"/usr/local/src/ecl/ecl-test/ansi/gclload2.lsp"
 > #<"CL-TEST" package>
CL-TEST> NIL
CL-TEST> Doing 21696 pending tests of 21696 tests total.

my program gets stuck when it compiles a large-ish source file called  
midi1.lisp. there is nothing special in that file, just lots of  
defconstants and bit twiddling.
