I apologize for the length of this message, but the need for sufficient 
detail to illustrate my problem warrants it.

I cannot install clisp for OS/2 (either source/ and source-haible/
from ma2s2.mathematik.uni-karlsruhe.de). My experience is documented
below, where:

	>>> = the install script
            = program execution
        ;;  = my comments

>>>Step-by-Step Installation on OS/2:
>>>1-3. Get, install EMX; set up path, directory; unpack sources.
>>>4. Convert the sources to the IBM PC character set.
