Daniel Kochmański fb5ce8b31a Merge branch 'heap-size-agreed' into 'develop' 
Heap related fixes

- User-defined heap sizes can now exceed the size of a fixnum on 32-bit
  Fixes issue #140

- The heap size limit was intended to be 1GB on 32-bit or 4GB on 64-bit
  but inconsistency between ECL_FIXNUM_BITS and FIXNUM_BITS in the code
  prevented the heap to grow for 64-bit.  This now occurs, and a few
  other less visible bugs were fixed by restoring consistency to
  ECL_FIXNUM_BITS.

README.md

ECL stands for Embeddable Common-Lisp. The ECL project aims to produce an implementation of the Common-Lisp language which complies to the ANSI X3J13 definition of the language.

The term embeddable refers to the fact that ECL includes a Lisp to C compiler, which produces libraries (static or dynamic) that can be called from C programs. Furthermore, ECL can produce standalone executables from Lisp code and can itself be linked to your programs as a shared library. It also features an interpreter for situations when a C compiler isn't available.

ECL supports the operating systems Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, DragonFly BSD, OpenBSD, Solaris (at least v. 9), Microsoft Windows (MSVC, MinGW and Cygwin) and OSX, running on top of the Intel, Sparc, Alpha, ARM and PowerPC processors. Porting to other architectures should be rather easy.
