Problems I found: 1- you look for encodings in #p"SYS:ENCODINGS;" (upper case, as per the standard), which is mapped to .../lib/mkcl-1.1.8/encodings/ (lower case, as customary on Unix, thus as per the standard). However, the directory and its files have upper case names, and are therefore not found. This breaks asdf-encodings and thus the test-encodings.script test. Note: you need to download the latest version of asdf-encodings for this test to work.
Thank you for the bug report. This will give me an opportunity to revisit that land of half-forgotten and so often much too brittle legacy.
2- even assuming SYS:ENCODINGS; were found, it is not obvious at all what is the right way to detect the presence of an encoding. i.e. given the keyword :latin-2, what is the recommended way to detect if an encoding is supported and/or to list supported encodings? e.g. check (si::make-encoding :latin-2), or see that mk-ext::latin-2 in bound to a keyword?
As I said above, half-forgotten legacy, so I'll need a little while to reply on this one...
3- if I uncomment the lines: ;;(unless (or #+ecl (use-ecl-byte-compiler-p)) ;; (setf *load-system-operation* 'load-bundle-op)) I get an error in test-logical-pathname, with the .fasb apparently mapped to the wrong directory.
???! What is the real need for this one? You see me a bit baffled here. Will investigate...
