Greetings,

Please find in attach three log files. My GCC (clang) information is the
following (Note that it's impossible to get more info like 'gcc -v' with
a real GCC compiler):

binghe@binghe-mac7:~/Lisp/gcl/gcl$ gcc -v
Apple clang version 15.0.0 (clang-1500.1.0.2.5)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin23.3.0
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir:
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin

The "configure.log" is generated by the following commands in GCL
working directory (with the unmodified 'master', commit id: 22c93c4c)

export C_INCLUDE_PATH=/opt/local/include
export LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/local/lib

./configure --prefix=/usr/local \
      --disable-notify \
      --disable-statsysbfd \
      --disable-ansi \
      --enable-custreloc \
      --enable-emacsdir=/opt/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/gcl \
      --enable-infodir=/opt/local/share/info \
      --enable-readline \
      --disable-gprof \
      --without-x \
      --disable-xgcl \
      --disable-tcltk \
      --enable-dynsysgmp \
      --enable-debug > configure.log

Then I found there's another "config.log" with more information (about
my building environment), so I attached it too. (The file is 4MB big, so
I compressed it by bzip2).

Then I call make and redirected all std and error outputs to "make.log":

binghe@binghe-mac7:~/Lisp/gcl/gcl$ make >& make.log

The building process stopped at the previous mentioned linking issue
"symbol not found in flat namespace '_Cnil_body'".

Unfortunately, I can't see any special compiler warnings about the
fixnum/ufixnum issue.  More importantly, the previous observed crash
disappeared, even without your proposed code changes! (I think this
means the crashing is sensitive to particular memory layout, or due to
memory leaking, thus not always reproducible.)

Hope this helps...

P.S. I think I can provide you a remote access to a macOS Sonoma virtual
machine that you can connect to its desktop by VNC. (We can talk more
about this in private communications.)
