When the error occurs there is still no src/sys-proclaim.lisp and no
binary-gcl folder, but the first command executed contains these names =>

created the folders

 - binary-gcl
 - binary-gcl/numerical
 - binary-gcl/numerical/slatec

and an empty file named

 - src/sys-proclaim.lisp

Afterwards I did a
 - touch src/*.lisp
 - touch src/*.am

now the gcl build compiles again.

Only creating the .lisp file didn't help, for some reason.
As I am neither an lisp expert nor an expert for our build system I will
stop my debugging works here.

Kind regards,
