for what appear to be partial remedies.

I forgot to attach the config.log, which may be useful.

Hi,

I'm not 100% sure this counts as a "bug", but don't know where else to get help so here goes: I'm building MIT/GNU Scheme 12.1 on macOS 15.1.  On both an M2 machine running Scheme in Rosetta and on an Intel machine, I get the same behavior, namely I manage to build mit-scheme-12.1-x86-64.tar.gz but the compiler doesn't seem to work: if I compile a file and load it, I get the following:

MIT/GNU Scheme running under OS X
Type `^C' (control-C) followed by `H' to obtain information about interrupts.

1 ]=> (cf "fact.scm")

;Generating SCode for file: "fact.scm" => "fact.bin"...
;  This program does not have a USUAL-INTEGRATIONS declaration.
;  Without this declaration, the compiler will be unable to perform
;  many optimizations, and as a result the compiled program will be
;  slower and perhaps larger than it could be.  Please read the MIT
;  Scheme User's Guide for more information about USUAL-INTEGRATIONS.
;... done
;Compiling file: "fact.bin" => "fact.com"... done
;Unspecified return value

1 ]=> (load "fact.com")

;Loading "fact.com"...
;The object fact, passed as an argument to return-address->stack-frame-type, is not in the correct range.
;To continue, call RESTART with an option number:
; (RESTART 1) => Return to read-eval-print level 1.

2 error>

Curiously, if I take a copy of "fact.com" compiled on a Linux box  and load it on my Mac version of Scheme 12.1, it does run correctly.

I say I'm not sure this counts as a bug because I don't think this is a supported platform.  But I don't know how to start to debug this as it seems to be a compiler issue that only surfaces when I try to load and run the compiled code.

In case it may help, I attach the files mentioned above, and the "bad" compiled code.  Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

Kevin
