Hi,

I'm about to package your project for Guix, it would be nice if you have add initial version to it.
It could be added as git tag or version reference in ASDF file.

Thanks

The system needs a few fix-ups to build on Genera. Mostly file attributes and conditionalisation on :external-format, the same as LispWorks. This is also fixed in PR #9

Building with SBCL 2.1.0.29-a1ce59262 / ASDF 3.3.1 for quicklisp dist creation.

uax-15 fails to build with the following error:

Unhandled SB-INT:SIMPLE-PROGRAM-ERROR in thread #<SB-THREAD:THREAD "main thread" RUNNING {1001A40103}>: invalid number of arguments: 4

uax-15/tests fails to build with the following error:

Unhandled SB-INT:SIMPLE-PROGRAM-ERROR in thread #<SB-THREAD:THREAD "main thread" RUNNING {1001A40103}>: invalid number of arguments: 4

This is because, at the time the test system is defined, we are in package uax-15-system.

I would suggest removing the following lines from the system definition file:

(defpackage :uax-15-system
  (:use :common-lisp :asdf))
(in-package :uax-15-system)

The ASDF best practices guide suggests this is a bad practice.

Alternatively, the test-op can be redefined with fully qualified symbols:

(uiop:symbol-call :parachute '#:test 'uax-15-tests::suite :report 'parachute:quiet)

Edit: I found a third alternative: use the uiop:find-symbol* function, which was apparently designed for this purpose.

I am trying to bring my Genera version of Postmodern up to the latest. A lot has changed in the last few years. One of the stumbling blocks is cl-unicode. This triggers a bug in Genera that is beyond my ability to fix, and unless one of Symbolics paying customers runs into it, I doubt it will ever be addressed.

The only function from this library used in Postmodern is has-property, in utils.lisp, where it is used in two places to determine if a letter is a character.

Could this functionality be added here so that the dependency on cl-unicode could be removed from Postmodern?
