Hello Raymond,

thanks for these hints about cross.lisp
I put in the proper section the unwanted feature.

So, if I force the redefinition of those symbols at the end of
alpha-cross compiling phase, alpha-target starts but I noticed this
error among the others:

; File: /home/fausap/CMUCL/git-ver/cmucl/src/code/lispinit.lisp

; In: DEFUN SLEEP

;   (ERROR 'SIMPLE-TYPE-ERROR
;          :FORMAT-CONTROL "Invalid argument to SLEEP: ~S.~%~
;             Must be a non-negative, non-complex number."
;          :FORMAT-ARGUMENTS ...)
; Note: Deleting unreachable code.
;

DOUBLE-DOUBLE-FLOAT fell through ECASE expression.
Wanted one of (REAL FLOAT OR SINGLE-FLOAT DOUBLE-FLOAT RATIONAL INTEGER).

it's very strange... I disabled double-double... why I have this error ?

This is my features list in cross.lisp (I removed extern-alien-name,
fixup, etc... I don't know what they are doing... so maybe I can put
back later)

;;; Cross-compile script to build a alpha core using x86 as the
;;; compiling system.  This needs work!

(in-package :cl-user)

;;; Rename the X86 package and backend so that new-backend does the
;;; right thing.
(rename-package "X86" "OLD-X86" '("OLD-VM"))
(setf (c:backend-name c:*native-backend*) "OLD-X86")

     :mp))

And about the "CLASS" error:

I have in the log:

; File: /home/fausap/CMUCL/git-ver/cmucl/src/code/error.lisp

Execution of a form compiled with errors:
 (SETF (INFO :SOURCE-LOCATION :CLASS NAME) SOURCE-LOCATION)

; Error in function C::TYPE-INFO-OR-LOSE:  "CLASS" is not a defined info type.

then

Start time: Wednesday, 9/3/14 01:45:29 am [-2], compiling target:code/type.

Error in function C::%%DEFCONSTANT:  Constant FLOAT-FORMATS being redefined.

Aborting...
