Yes, configure will clean it up.  Before we can make progress, we'll
have to solve this problem.  (I do have an iMac running OSX at home,
but don't have acl.)

Try looking through the generated configure script.  Find the place
where conftest.c is created.  And try to compile that up by hand.  

Or you could just do a simple "Hello world!" program, and compile it
using "gcc -c -O2 hello.c" and see where the output goes.  It seems
that b.out is ok.  Then try to run it.

Matlisp doesn't use any C++ code.
