Hi,

I tried running Seaside in GNU Smalltalk, like described here:

Hello,

as reported on http://bugs.debian.org/477312 GNU Smalltalk 3.0a fails to build from source on ia64.

Applying the patch from [1] does not solve the failure. The testsuite.dir is available from [2]. I'm currently trying to dig this a little further.

There are several places you can put expressions that are evaluated during compilation:

1. class tag arguments (e.g. <import: SomeVar>)
2. class var initializers (e.g. MyClassVar := SomeVar)
3. compile-time evals in methods, and in any of the above (e.g. ##(SomeVar) or MyClassVar := ##(SomeVar)

In the VM, all of these are currently managed as compilations on UndefinedObject, with the addition to the pool search of the current namespace (which is twiddled by moving UndefinedObject). This is all very well and recursive, where

Hello,

test 117 of GNU Smalltalk 3.0a fails on Debian amd64 sid box. (It also fails on i386.)

Please find attached the testsuite.log associated with this test. I seem to recall there was an API change in SQLite3 (we have 3.5.6), it might be related.

I'll have a look at this if you don't.
