I have an ARM Chromebook with Ubuntu 14.04 "Trusty" running in a chroot. It seems that a newLISP package isn't available for ARM. Thus I downloaded and compiled from source. It compiled just fine with no errors or warnings reported (though I couldn't get readline support working). However, when I did a 'make test' I get this error reported:
>>>>> TESTING: ./newlisp FINISHED WITH ERRORS:
>>>> struct failed ERR: ffi struct expected in function pack
It passed all the other tests.
