I am trying to port Stony Brook Prolog and MIT C-Scheme to the Silicon Graphics IRIS-4D workstation. I have run into a severe problem due to the Mips processor requiring longs to be long-aligned in memory, and SBProlog assumes (all over the place) that longs only need to be short (16 bit) aligned. I'm not sure what Scheme's problem is (this is the one that GNU distributes). Before I spend a lot more time on this, has anyone already done a port of either program to: the Iris-4D, or another Mips-based computer, or even any other cpu with strong long-alignment restrictions? thanks in advance, Scott Henry <scotth@harlie.sgi.com> <- preferred <scott_henry@cup.portal.com> <-alternate
