I tried doing this back in the days of the beta test
release 6.  PCL wouldn't compile due to a compiler
bug/feature that got introduced to support TICLOS (!).
There was some mysterious macrological feature that was
very hard to track down because you needed to compile/load
most of PCL to get the bug to manifest itself.  At the
time they were disinclined to spend human cycles on fixing
a problem that only appeared when you were hacking with
someone else's CLOS.

Good luck.


Rice.

P.S.  The Stanford General Inspector tool works
simulataneously with both TICLOS and PCL, assuming you can
get the PCL to load.
