[Ecls-list] Frequent stackoverflow errors

[Marko Kocić]

Hi all,

I noticed that lately ECL frequently fails with stackoverflow errors,
especially when compiling/loading packages.
I can't reproduce it deterministically, but most often it happends
when I try to quickload or asdfload some package from SLIME.

However, it also happens from the command line. Right now I'm trying to do:
(asdf:oos 'asdf:load-fasl-op :lispbuilder-sdl)
and I get the following message:

;;;
;;; Stack overflow.
;;; Jumping to the outermost toplevel prompt
;;;

However, using (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-fasl-op :lispbuilder-sdl) I was
abe to compile/load it from commandline, but not from SLIME.

ECL is built on Win7x64 using 32 bit mingw with unicode and threads enabled.

Is there a way I can help to debug this stack overflow problem to find
a root cause?
