Can you spare 6? :)

1 svn co \
  https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/axiom/branches/build-improvements
\
    axiom.build-improvements
2 cd axiom.build-improvements
3 replace gcl-2.6.8pre tarball from cvs
4 apply Camm's patchs in src/interp
5 ./configure
6 make

Let me know if you have any questions. Or take a look
