[CM] CLM-4/SBCL on OS X PPC

[Geoff Lee]

Greetings,

I have an instrument which works fine on most combinations of CL and  
CLM on OS X and Windows.

Specifically it works fine on Intel machines with the following  
combination

OS X 10.5.8 / sbcl 1.0.30 / clm-4

On PPC however (with SBCL 1.0.29: the newest I could get to compile  
cleanly) gives the following warning when I try to use this instrument  
with (with-sound):

WARNING:
    attempting to load a string into run without knowing current  
endianess...

Followed by the backtrace below [1]:

Unfortunately I don't know much about lisp or clm, and I didn't write  
the instrument in question. I'm trying to get CLM working on OS X 10.5  
PPC and i386 for our labs and would appreciate any insight into why  
clm doesn't seem to know the current endianness, or indeed whether  
that's likely to be related to the memory fault error.

The instrument definitely worked with clm-3/sbcl on OS X 10.4/ppc and  
intel.

I have tried (pushnew :big-endian *features*), but am pretty much in  
the dark here.

Any insights much appreciated. If there is a different lisp which is  
known to work well with clm-4 on 10.5 PPC, I'm happy to use that. I've  
tried CCL, but it gives much more numerous errors.

Many TIA,
