dev-lisp/clozurecl is broken in 17.0. On ~x86 compiling it loops forever. 
I heard that on ~amd64 it compiles but the resulting binary is broken: it 
fails to compile maxima. The upstream says that this is related to Gentoo 
specific compilation options, and they recommend to use the upstream 
options. In 13.0 clozurecl works fine.

I think those who introduced 17.0 should fix what they have broken. I use 
13.0, and cannot switch so far.
