Has anyone gotten Scheme->C to work on a Silicon Graphics 4D series
machine?  I managed to get the scrt source to compile and link for a
MIPS target with no errors or warnings (after a few very minor
modifications to some #include paths).  However, when I run the
executable "sci", it exits with the following error message without
providing the usual greeting and prompt:

"***** inside ERROR" "WRITE-CHAR" "Argument is not an OUTPUT-PORT: ~s" 1001509b

Not being familiar with LISP implementation code, I didn't want to
even think about tackling the problem before finding out if someone
hasn't already solved it.  I've gotten Scheme->C to work on a SunOS
4.0.3 platform but I can't get it to run on a IRIX 3.3 platform (I'm
using the 28sept... release with the MCC patches).

Thanks,
