Just perversity.

Before I could run it as a shell, clisp shot dead out the water,
inasmuch as I can't run it in a normal !*&^ shell.

I did the pruning advised by David Billinghurst:
http://www.math.utexas.edu/pipermail/maxima/2001/000756.html
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-12/msg00565.html

and planted Reini Urban's ualarm() declaration
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-02/msg00091.html

blithely typed in whatever the computer told me to, and got the
expected test failure---excepsit.erg.

After typing 
    make install
I typed
    clisp -q
and got the following screen dump:

23> clisp -q

[1]> 
*** - UNIX error 13 (EACCES): Permission denied
*** - UNIX error 13 (EACCES): Permission denied

This happens both with the environment variable 
    CYGWIN=ntsec
flagged or not.  I've no idea where to go from here.

So my clisp shell is just sitting in the doldrums.
