I've been trying to build a version of emacs on a sparcstation running
"SunOS Release 4.1-GFX-Rev.1".  Currently, when I try to recompile all
the lisp files I get a message of the form:

Compiling /usr2/emacs/lisp/cl.el...
Compiling /usr2/emacs/lisp/cl.el (pair-with-newsyms)...
Wrong type argument: symbolp, (ptr oldforms (cdr ptr))
 
A dbx traceback of the same point gives:

Compiling /usr2/emacs/lisp/cl.el (pair-with-newsyms)...
stopped in wrong_type_argument at line 52 in file

And so on...

Is this a configuration issue?  If not, what is the best way of
determining the correct fix?  I'm not real familiar with the Emacs
source code.
