worked, *after* having said
apt-get install binutils-dev
(although it appears to me that this should be done by apt-get build-dep axiom,
but it isn't...)
Unfortunately, building axiom from the darcs sources does not work: it seems
that for some files the executable bit is not set (for example for configure),
so I said
chmod -R u+x *
and gcl-2.6.7.* is missing (I copied them from the debian distribution). Now
the build seems to be working.
I did not yet set up tla.
