12 ;;; We need a mechanism different from the usual SYMBOL-VALUE during cross-
13 ;;; compilation so we don't clobber the host Lisp's manifest constants.
14 ;;; This was formerly done using the globaldb, so emulate exactly the
15 ;;; calls to UNCROSS in (SETF INFO) and INFO because that works just fine.
16 ;;; Also, as noted in 'constantp.lisp'
17 ;;; "KLUDGE: superficially, this might look good enough..."
18 ;;; we should enforce that we not wrongly look at a host constant where
19 ;;; a target constant is intended. This specialized accessor, in lieu of INFO
20 ;;; facilitates implementing something like that, though in fact ir1tran is
21 ;;; already able to generate some warnings about host constant usage.

117 ;; FIXME: Having to check this and then not treat it as a fatal error
118 ;; seems like a symptom of things being pretty broken. It's also a problem
119 ;; in and of itself, since it makes it too easy for cases of using the
120 ;; cross-compilation host Lisp's CL constant values in the target Lisp to
121 ;; slip by. I got backed into this because the cross-compiler translates
122 ;; DEFCONSTANT SB!XC:FOO into DEFCONSTANT CL:FOO. It would be good to
123 ;; unscrew the cross-compilation package hacks so that that translation
124 ;; doesn't happen. Perhaps: * Replace SB-XC with SB-CL. SB-CL exports all
125 ;; the symbols which ANSI requires to be exported from CL. * Make a
126 ;; nickname SB!CL which behaves like SB!XC. * Go through the
127 ;; loaded-on-the-host code making every target definition be in SB-CL.
128 ;; E.g. SB!XC:DEFMACRO DEFCONSTANT becomes SB!XC:DEFMACRO SB!CL:DEFCONSTANT.
129 ;; * Make IN-TARGET-COMPILATION-MODE do UNUSE-PACKAGE CL and
130 ;; USE-PACKAGE SB-CL in each of the target packages (then undo it
131 ;; on exit). * Make the cross-compiler's implementation of EVAL-WHEN
132 ;; (:COMPILE-TOPLEVEL) do UNCROSS. (This may not require any change.) *
133 ;; Hack GENESIS as necessary so that it outputs SB-CL stuff as COMMON-LISP
134 ;; stuff. * Now the code here can assert that the symbol being defined
135 ;; isn't in the cross-compilation host's CL package.
