I've read through the installation notes and created new entries for the
386/387 processors.  The additions for the config.h file are included below:

#if defined(sequent) && defined(i386)
#define MACHINE_TYPE	      "sequent386"

#define FASL_INTERNAL_FORMAT    FASL_I387

/* The ASCII character set is used. */
#define BELL		       '\007'

#define Heap_In_Low_Memory     1
#define UNSIGNED_SHIFT	       1
#define VAX_BYTE_ORDER	       1

#define CHAR_SIZE	       8
#define USHORT_SIZE	       16
#define ULONG_SIZE	       32
#define DBFLT_SIZE	       64

/* Flonums have no special alignment constraints. */
#define FLONUM_MANTISSA_BITS	53
#define FLONUM_EXPT_SIZE	10
#define MAX_FLONUM_EXPONENT	1023

#define HAS_FLOOR
#define HAS_FREXP
#endif

The problem with compiling boot.c with either cc or gcc is that 6 #define's
are missing:

"boot.c", line 202: HEAP_SIZE undefined
"boot.c", line 203: STACK_SIZE undefined
"boot.c", line 204: CONSTANT_SIZE undefined
"boot.c", line 223: COMPILER_HEAP_SIZE undefined
"boot.c", line 224: COMPILER_STACK_SIZE undefined
"boot.c", line 225: COMPILER_CONSTANT_SIZE undefined


I've grep'ed the entire distribution for these values with no luck.  Any
suggestions? I'm not on the mailing list as I'm installing scheme as a favor.
