Compiling CL files with GCL-2.7.0-10

[Grégory Vanuxem]

Hello,

I have git cloned GCL from savannah to build FriCAS with it. In fact,
I told here that gcl-2.7.0 compiles smoothly FriCAS but I was totally
wrong, I did not know that the GCL binary in the Debian package is
'gcl27' so gcl-2.6.14 was picked up when I wanted to test GCL 2.7 with
FriCAS and I did not noticed that. This was principally to test the
build and some FriCAS test files.

And it seems to me there are some strange things with the header file
cmpinclude.h. During the compilation of a CL file, namely
fricas-lisp.lisp in FriCAS
(https://github.com/fricas/fricas/blob/master/src/lisp/fricas-lisp.lisp)
some declarations are not present and the build process chocks. Here
are several errors that stop the build for example:

=======================================================

The output of the build process is attached for convenience. For
simplicity I have also attached the .c and .h files.

What seems strange to me is that if I quickly look at the cmpinclude.h
file from gcl-2.6.14 those 'undeclared types/macros/...' seem to be
all declared.

I have no idea how this header file is produced, and if the problem
comes from it, but attached files could eventually help.
