Comment (by kakuhen):
I am here to report that **builds work as intended on Darwin/arm64**,
meaning this is likely an issue with the Lisp implementation used to
bootstrap SBCL on Darwin/x86_64 (version 1.2.11). I have posted in #sbcl
on LiberaChat asking the developers for updated bootstrap binaries. I do
not expect this request to be fulfilled. In the mean time, tomio-arisaka's
suggestion is the best way forward.
SBCL can be bootstrapped just fine with other Common Lisp implementations,
such as CCL, ECL, and even CLISP (provided you use recent versions, which
MacPorts indeed offers). In my experience, most people bootstrap SBCL with
ECL, as ECL only requires a C99-compliant compiler. In absence of an
updated bootstrap binary from upstream, we can fall back on CCL (or ECL)
as a solution for i386 and x86_64. CCL is probably the way to go since we
can pull in a binary blob rather than perform a full compilation of ECL
just to begin bootstrapping SBCL.
