            Bug ID: 216416
           Summary: lang/sbcl doesn't compile with synth (i.e. synth
                    suspends to command line)
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New

I had an issue with lang/sbcl not working or compiling properly under Synth
1.66_1.  The synth process suspends whenever it goes to build lang/sbcl. I was
told to file a bug report by marino@ the maintainer of synth for this issue.

There is a thread on the FreeBSD forums I started about this issue. The issue
appears to have been introduced with the January 17, 2017 update of lang/sbcl.
The forum thread has several people working on a fix for the issue.  marino@
the maintainer of synth gives a workaround to get synth to work with the
current lang/sbcl port:

Here is the link to the forum post: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/59430/

The workaround for now is this:

   1) Create a second, nearly identical profile to LiveSystem, which the only
difference is that the curses display is disabled. Only use the second profile
to build sbcl
   2) Run Synth inside screen or tmux and close the window so that tty is
disconnected (and thus not broken)
   3) As ASX suggested, keep one profile but just never use the curses display
(the web display still works)
