[CM] Trouble using tunings

[Rick Taube]

Hi -- I dont have MCL anymore so if I can't build 2.3.4 in openmcl im 
not sure if ill be able to debug it.
FWIW it does work in 2.7.0:

? (new tuning :name 'meantone :octaves '(-1 10)
       :cents '((0 c) (86 cs) (192 d) (312 ds) (384 e) (504 f)(578 fs)
                (696 g) (771 gs) (888 a) (1008 as) (1082 b)
                1200))
#<tuning "meantone">
? (hertz 'a4 :in #&meantone)
436.96066
?
