Hey, I can play Solitaire in Cuis! ;^)
OK. The details and the breakage.
===================
[1] Basics working:
===================
I commented out (via #ifndef MUSL) the refs to FILE in
Cross/vm/sqVirtualMachine.c and added empty {push,pop}OutputFile() funs
to unix/vm/sqUnixMain.c.
For musl:
I added -DGNU_SOURCE to CFLAGS in
build.linux64ARMv8/squeak.stack.spur/build/mvm
I changed the call of getwd() to getcwd() in
securityPlugin/sqUnixSecurity.c
============
[2] Breakage
============
The squeak script reports /lib/ld-musl-aarch64.so.1: cannot load
/usr/local/bin/lib/squeak/5*..*/squeak
[but the lib/squeak/5*/squeak executable works fine]
Also, there is a problem with floats. SmallInteger 0.0 does not print
well. Scaled is '000.0' and ulp leads to nextTowardZero -> "Error: Not
for zero values"
Musl is a bit different from glibc in numeric rounding and does not
signal float errors.
===
So. Some work to do here, but basic image is running!
Thanks again to all!
