problems with CLX on SGI 4D

[ramani@patience.Stanford.EDU (Ramani Pichumani)]

In trying to get CLX to work with Allegro CL on a Silicon Graphics 4D
Personal Iris, I noticed that I could only achieve success if I left
the files 'display.cl', 'requests.cl' and 'input.cl' uncompiled (i.e,
just loaded the source instead of the fasl).  If I use the fasl files
instead of the source, various functions such as 'open-display' hang
indefinitely.  I used the excldefsys.cl file to build the system and I
found these three files to be the culprits.  Has anyone gotten CLX to
work properly with this architecture?  Also, does this sound like a
compiler bug or is it some strange system related problem?

Thanks,
