Tried build using --without-gcl. Now build fails much earlier:

gcc -c -Wall -DVOL=volatile -fsigned-char -pipe -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer  
-I/home/s/test/tt/axiom4/build-improvements/lsp/gcl-2.6.8pre/o -I../h 
-I../gcl-tk fat_string.c
fat_string.c:17:17: error: bfd.h: Nie ma takiego pliku ani katalogu
fat_string.c:18:21: error: bfdlink.h: Nie ma takiego pliku ani katalogu
fat_string.c:231: error: syntax error before 'bfd_combined_table_update'
fat_string.c:231: error: syntax error before 'PTR'


BFD library is not installed on the build machine. From gcl configure log:

...
checking for bfd.h... no
checking for useable bfd_boolean... no
Guessing path to libbfd.a due to gcc bug
...
