Mac OS 10.14 can't build cmucl
We've known this was going to happen eventually, and now in 10.14 it has. Cmucl will run, but it won't build because the 32-bit stuff (not sure what) is no longer available. This also means that (save-lisp :executable t)
doesn't work either. Saving a normal core works, though.
I think there are two alternatives here:
- Finally make cmucl run on x64 (hard)
- Do what the alpha port did. 64-bit stuff but using only 32 bits for lisp. (Hard but much easier than full x64.)
Presumably, 10.15 will drop support for running 32-bit binaries. (I think that's stupid-not everything needs 64-bit pointers and integers.)
