Tektronix ExCL vs PCL



I am having trouble getting the latest version of PCL (12/7/88) running
on ExCl 3.0.0.1 on a Tektronix 4317.  The version of PCL shipped with the
distribution is 5-87, an antique, so I got  the latest.

Where it matters, in fin.cl, the
system is being treated as a sun3 since the test is for gsgc and not sun4.
If I force sun4, fin.cl won't compile.  
Anyway, the compilation is halted in vector.cl with the following error.
Any ideas?
