Summary: binary distribution does not include libsigsegv.a

Initial Comment:
distmakefile refers to -lsigsegv which may not be
installed on the target machine.
thus we need to include libsigsegv.a in the binary
distribution.
it apears that the easiest way to do that is to link it
into lisp.a.
this will open the way to including libz.a in the
future too &c.

Message:
thank you for your bug report.
the bug has been fixed in the CVS tree.
you can either wait for the next release (recommended)
or check out the current CVS tree (see http://clisp.cons.org)
and build CLISP from the sources (be advised that between
releases the CVS tree is very unstable and may not even build
on your platform).

this is a general problem with binary compatibility across machines.
it is the responsibility of the user to install all the supporting
libraries, 
otherwise we will end up distributing libc with clisp also.
