[elephant-devel] Elephant won't compile under Lispworks for Linux 5.1

Hi, Larry

I just checked, Elephant 1.0 on my LWL64 5.0.2 can be compiled and  
loaded correctly. LWL64 5.1.2 failed on classes.lisp which you met.

In src/elephant/metaclasses.lisp, I found two definitions which  
mentioned about LispWorks versions:

line 396:

#+(or :lispworks3 :lispworks4 (and :lispworks5 :lispworks5.0))
(defmethod (setf slot-definition-allocation) (allocation (slot-def  
persistent-slot-definition))
   (unless (eq allocation :database)
     (error "Invalid allocation type ~A for slot-definition- 
allocation" allocation))
   allocation)

line 587:

#+lispworks
(defmethod (setf slot-definition-allocation) (allocation (slot-def  
persistent-slot-definition))
   (unless (eq allocation :database)
     (error "Invalid allocation type ~A for slot-definition- 
allocation" allocation))
   allocation)

The error output you saw, is reported by the second method definition  
above, I believe. I don't know much about Elephant, but I think above  
two method should both be disabled in LispWorks 5.1, which confirms  
"slot-definition changes for AMOP compatibility" in LW5.1:

With my trivial patch, I go further:

I think above compile error should be fixed by a simple patch, but I  
don't know how to fix it. Hope other guys better than me can help us  
go further.

There're some MOP differences between LispWorks 5.1 and early versions  
which mentioned in LW5.1 release notes:
