Re: [Matlisp-users] compiling MatLisp on FC5?

[Michael A. K. <ma...@ll...>]

Paul,

If/when you get it to compile, execute (make-complex-matrix N) with N
some number greater than 2.  I haven't had time to investigate the
problem (nor report it), but under SLES-9 and RHE-3 (?) I get SEGV
problems.  I might suspect the same for for FC-x.
