It has been removed from Debian testing (Jessie) since August 2014.

https://packages.qa.debian.org/c/clisp.html

Arch is just missing any dynamic modules.  I have been using my own
build, so I am not sure if it ever did.  When a Arch library
got updated, I needed to rebuild CLISP, and I noticed the issue, and
re-looked at its status on other platforms.

Since Jessie is still unrelease, it might not have been considered a
priority.  However, after all this time, and the lack of activity in the
repository since April 2013 (in spite of bugs in it bugtracking system),
I am starting to worry if CLISP is currently maintained.

I currently have two build problems:

  1) modules/binding/glibc/linux.lisp: The resulting linux.c file triggers:
 #error "never use bits/ipctypes.h" directly.  include <sys/ipc.h>  instead.
     I replaced bits/ipctypes.h with sys/ipc.h and the compile worked.
  2) src/makemake.in:  The missing library you fixed.

Since I only have non LTS linux systems, I don't know if these changes
break some other platform.  They seem to work for me.
