[comp.sys.mac.misc] Mac IIsi & Lisp

This is a compatibility question.

I have tried old copies of both Allegro Common Lisp and XLisp 2.0 
from a couple years back when I used to have a Mac.  I recently
bought a Mac IIsi with system 6.0.7 (of course) (but no Math 
Coproc), and both XLisp and Allegro die (unexpectly).  This is 
very upsetting since I planned to us the Mac in part for some 
Lisp programming.  So, I have two questions:

Does anyone know if a newer version of Allegro Common Lisp works
with this machine and system?

What needs to be done to get XLisp to work with this machine and
system.

Thanks!

MACL 1.3.2 works fine for me on a IIsi.
