I recently did a complete end-to-end build of Axiom Silver on Gentoo. It 
worked fine.

svn co https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/axiom/trunk axiom.silver

I have GCL installed, and I'm just about to try using that for the build.

By the way, Axiom is actually in Portage (sci-mathematics/axiom) but 
it's the September 2005 tarball. I should bug the Gentoo Science folks 
about putting up a newer tarball, like the most recent Golden.
