[elephant-devel] Problems installing elephant on gentoo linux/CMUCL

[garry.steedman at gmail.com]

Hello all,

I was wondering if anyone's managed to get elephant working on gentoo 
linux/CMUCL? If yes, any pointers would be appreciated as I've tried the 
ebuild and a source tarball, but without any luck (my install box has
all the required dependencies: ASDF, UFFI, libpthreads, Berkeley 4.2 - at 
least all the obvious ones!)

I include the CMUCL backtrace below just in case anyone has any 
pointers...

cheers,

garry

                             {480E3ACD}> to the generic function #<Standard-Generic-Function PCL:DIRECT-SLOT-DEFINITION-CLASS (3)

But the method has fewer required arguments than the generic function.
