Yep! That's a goofy bug of mine. I hit on it recently in a somewhat different context.

Hello,

I have a linking problem under Arch Linux with GCC 6.3.1 toolchain.

Command output:
/usr/bin/ld: unrecognized option '--no-whole-archive-Wl'
/usr/bin/ld: use the --help option for usage information

This happens both with mkcl 1.1.10 tarball and newest sources from
https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/mkcl/mkcl.git.

I think this comes from the gc subdirectory's configure script.

Don't think so. I'd bet much more on a missing blank space somewhere in mkcl/src/cmp/cmpmain.lsp or mkcl/src/cmp/cmpdefs.lsp.in.

I'll investigate and get back to you with a possible fix.

 

Help would be appreciated.

Best Regards
