[Sbcl-help] Compilation fails for amd64-pthread-branch

[Nicolas N. <Nic...@iw...>]

Hello,

since recently, I have access to an Opteron cluster at the CSC, University
of Warwick (I am a guest there for three months).  I have tried SBCL/AMD64
and it worked fine.  Thank you very much for this port!

Then I wanted to try if I could use also the thread version.  However, the
CVS version with the amd64-thread-branch tag gave an error during
compilation of C code, see below.

Is there a specific configuration necessary?

Thanks, Nicolas.
