Thank you very much for these, Marius. I will look into fixing them directly. One question - do I need to check for ECL version number when requiring sockets in the test? I.e., to I need to test with :rt in older versions and :sockets in newer? Or will :sockets work in older versions of ECL, as well?

Best,

Harmless in the sense that ECL doesn't crash or throw me in the
interactive debugger. Besides, the test failures seem to be easily
fixed. The test-require.script test fails because it tries to require
the :rt module which is deprecated on the develop branch and no longer
build by default. A simple fix is to use the :sockets module instead:

The test-program.script test seems to fail to include uiop because of an
error in the linkable-system function. Tracing it shows that the
function returns nil for the uiop system object,

I can't reproduce this, for me the tests run fine without being thrown
in the debugger. I only get two harmlessly looking test failures
(test-program.script and test-require.script).

No test failure is harmless. The test-program.script failure is what
Robert saw, that I can reproduce. I didn't reproduce a failure with
test-require. I had more problems with ECL from the develop branch,
but maybe it was a bad idea to use the develop branch.
