errors when re-compiling CLISP on Slackware

Hello clisp-list

Please be understanding that I am not competent in lisp/clisp and my post
is to seek some assistance in what the issue is from errors I am receiving
from compilation. The programs installed on a Slackware release work as is
usual with Slackware, but there is no guarantee any program will
subsequently recompile without error...so it is said.

Please will someone cast an eye over the following and provide some advice
on where I might start to resolve the issue and perhaps get more familiar
to boot ?

Thank you.


Up-to-date stable Slackware 14.2 (both 32 and 64 bit) platform.

2.49 clisp using the build setup found on the packages.slackware.com (under
'd' section).

My intention was to try enable the fastcgi module, but before that to just
try re-build without any changes.

Running the 'clisp.SlackBuild' produces many warnings and other info and an
[fatal?] error which appears to come from some lisp testing sequence that
gets run at build time and terminates the build:

(echo *.erg | grep '*' >/dev/null) || (echo "Test failed:" ; ls -l *erg;
echo "To see which tests failed, type" ; echo "    cat "`pwd`"/*.erg" ;
exit 1)
Test failed:
...
To see which tests failed, type
    cat /tmp/clisp-2.49/with-gcc-wall/tests/*.erg
Makefile:34: recipe for target 'compare' failed
make[1]: *** [compare] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/clisp-2.49/with-gcc-wall/tests'
Makefile:2512: recipe for target 'check-tests' failed
make: *** [check-tests] Error 2

cat *.erg produces:

Form: (STRINGP (WITH-OUTPUT-TO-STRING (S) (DESCRIBE NIL S)))
CORRECT: T
CLISP  : ERROR
PARSE-INTEGER: substring "" does not have integer syntax at position 0

OUT:
"HTTP/1.1 302 Found
[SIMPLE-PARSE-ERROR]: PARSE-INTEGER: substring \"\" does not have integer
syntax at position 0

"
