help on building clisp

[shashank <sha...@gm...>]

Hello,

I am Shashank (a gsoc aspirant) and I have been trying to build clisp
however I can't seem to progress.
I have cloned the mercuial repository from here -
http://sourceforge.net/p/clisp/clisp/ci/default/tree/doc/

In an earlier exchange of email, Sam Steingold asked me to:
> Clone the clisp mercurial repo and build from it with threads.
> Observe the crashes in the tests.
> Investigate how you would replace the CLISP hash table implementation
> with the lock-free one.

However as soon as I do :


   1. $ make -f Makefile.devel CFLAGS=MULTITHREAD


I get this error :     (The complete stacktrace is
here<http://pastebin.com/PpHsT1vU>
)


   1. find: `@srcdir@\\..\\modules\\': No such file or directory


So I tried build using configure

   1. $ ./configure --with-threads=POSIX_THREADS

the command runs successfully and in the end, I get the following


   1. Configure findings:
   2.   FFI:        no (user requested: default)
   3.   readline:   no (user requested: default)
   4. libsigsegv: yes
   5. ./makemake  --with-threads=POSIX_THREADS  > Makefile
   6. make: `config.lisp` is up to date.
   7.
   8. To continue building CLISP, the following commands are recommended
   9.   (cf. unix/INSTALL step 4 ff):
   10.     cd src
   11.     vi config.lisp
   12.     make
   13.     make check



Later, the execution of `make` and `make check` commands also occurs
successfully (with huge amount of execution steps being flushed out on the
terminal).

However, I can't possibly seem to locate errors while building with
threads, although I may be wrong in execution or looking at the wrong place.
Can you guide me as to how I shall proceed in this regard. Also, how and
where the CLISP hash table implementation is used, which in turn should be
replaced by a lock-free implementation.

Thanks in advance.

Shashank
