Arch Linux

Apparently SBCL needs it. I removed the execstack flag from an SBCL-compiled binary and it stopped working.

...but "executable stack" looks like a security hole.
I think, this is something, which the developers should address.

Warnings about missing lisp and interpsys are caused by shebang in .fasl files. It does not affect the functionality.

Thanks for the report. namcap errors have been fixed and I will look what can be done for its warnings.
BTW there was no need to flag the package as out of date: I am subscribed on all comments and the version was 1.2.2 already :) Thanks anyway.

namcap gives the following output:
