[Axiom-developer] Re: Axiom trunk failure

yep. it turns off the "tail recursion" noise. bill schelter and i
worked on creating tail recursion in AKCL. This was just a debugging
message at the time. For some reason it outlived its useful life and
continues in the current code base. the message "exposes" lisp to 
the user of the axiom interpreter so i removed it.

it should patch correctly. i suspect there is a mismatch between
the GCL version you are using and the patch level you are using.

in the zips subdirectory all patches are named by the .tgz file
to which they apply. the name also includes the directory path
to the file and the name of the file. so 

zips/gcl-2.6.7

has patches like

gcl-2.6.7.cmpnew.gcl_cmpflet.lsp.patch

which lives in lsp/gcl-2.6.7/cmpnew/gcl_cmpflet.lsp
