Argh :-(

Yes, it does (indirectly).  Spad codes, or Spad scripts, are compiled to Lisp.
Then the Lisp codes is evaluated.  The Lisp system we use on Windows, GCL,
first compiles Lisp codes to C, then compile the C codes to native
object code, then run the result.

It looks to me as if GCL is having some difficulty.

Please, try this and tell me what happens.

1. start OpenAxiom

2.  Issue the following command at the prompt

)lisp (setq compiler::*default-system-p* nil)


This is something OpenAxiom never needed because the problem was
solved long ago.  Something must have changed "recently" either in
OpenAxiom makefiles or in GCL.
