[Sbcl-devel] Everything is looking like a nail

[Daniel B. <da...@te...>]

I have committed my mostly non-functional x86-64 backend work onto the
`when-all-you-have-is-a-hammer-branch'.

I'm telling you this mostly so that you know what's happening: I'm
reaching the point where I'm making changes that I might want to
revert, and programming without a version control safety net is
frightening.  I certainly don't recommend attempting to use this.
Please don't even bother having expectations about what it might do:
the answer is "get partway through cold init" -

/at head of loop over *BUILT-IN-CLASSES*
/at head of loop over *BUILT-IN-CLASSES*
/at head of loop over *BUILT-IN-CLASSES*
/done with loop over *BUILT-IN-CLASSES*
/about to define temporary STANDARD-CLASSes
/defining temporary STANDARD-CLASS
/INHERITS=..
0x0d2e403f
/done defining temporary STANDARD-CLASSes
/about to set *BUILT-IN-CLASS-CODES*
/done setting *BUILT-IN-CLASS-CODES*
!EARLY-TYPE-COLD-INIT
!LATE-TYPE-COLD-INIT
fatal error encountered in SBCL pid 26497:
no handler for signal 11 in interrupt_handle_now(..)

Sooner or later it'll want to be forward-ported (the branch point was
0.8.7.25), but there are many things needing to be done first,
including sorting out the pretty appalling mess that is floating
point.
