match py([0-9][0-9])-.*. Fixes breakage when building gnome which then
tries to build hamster-applet and chokes due to PYPKGPREFIX ending up
undefined.
This release is the last one before a major redesign of ECL,
which will affect issues like Unicode streams and handling of
interrupts.
Most notable changes since 0.9l include:
- new versioning scheme, based on <year>.<month>.<patchlevel>;
- compiler error, warning, notes and messages handling;
- float point number exceptions handling;
- signals handling;
- improvements to help file;
- improvements to operating system interface;
- CLX 0.7.3;
- many bug fixes.
* lots of bugfixes
* add/correct semantic checks
* more/improved warnings
* internal cleanups (introduce entity_t types)
* support more GCC extensions
* improved error recovery
* support more switches for GCC compatibility
* support for libc builtins
* add a manpage
was there because guile was built against gmp etc. from /usr/pkg, not
present to let programs find -lguile. Therefore, add in rpath for
$(libdir) when we add in -L for libdir.
This looks ok to me, but I will be away AFK most of the day, so feel
free to remove the line in distinfo and re-commit if this turns out to
be bad.
merging to the new guile-config code, and it turns out not to be
necessary since there is some other mechanism to add rpath. Arguably
it should still be added, as the later rpath might only be there for
dependencies. (Plus, depending programs should use pkg-config
instead.)
Delete patch-aa as the whole lt_preloaded_symbols bit is gone upstream.
Changes in 1.8.6 (since 1.8.5)
* New features (see the manual for details)
** New convenience function `scm_c_symbol_length ()'
** Single stepping through code from Emacs
When you use GDS to evaluate Scheme code from Emacs, you can now use
`C-u' to indicate that you want to single step through that code. See
`Evaluating Scheme Code' in the manual for more details.
** New "guile(1)" man page!
* Changes to the distribution
** Automake's `AM_MAINTAINER_MODE' is no longer used
Thus, the `--enable-maintainer-mode' configure option is no longer
available: Guile is now always configured in "maintainer mode".
** `ChangeLog' files are no longer updated
Instead, changes are detailed in the version control system's logs. See
the top-level `ChangeLog' files for details.
* Bugs fixed
** `symbol->string' now returns a read-only string, as per R5RS
** Fix incorrect handling of the FLAGS argument of `fold-matches'
** `guile-config link' now prints `-L$libdir' before `-lguile'
** Fix memory corruption involving GOOPS' `class-redefinition'
** Fix possible deadlock in `mutex-lock'
** Fix build issue on Tru64 and ia64-hp-hpux11.23 (`SCM_UNPACK' macro)
** Fix build issue on mips, mipsel, powerpc and ia64 (stack direction)
** Fix build issue on hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.11 (`dirent64' and `readdir64_r')
** Fix build issue on i386-unknown-freebsd7.0 ("break strict-aliasing rules")
** Fix misleading output from `(help rationalize)'
** Fix build failure on Debian hppa architecture (bad stack growth detection)
** Fix `gcd' when called with a single, negative argument.
** Fix `Stack overflow' errors seen when building on some platforms
** Fix bug when `scm_with_guile ()' was called several times from the
same thread
** The handler of SRFI-34 `with-exception-handler' is now invoked in the
dynamic environment of the call to `raise'
** Fix potential deadlock in `make-struct'
** Fix compilation problem with libltdl from Libtool 2.2.x
** Fix sloppy bound checking in `string-{ref,set!}' with the empty string

Cparser is a recursive descent C99 parser written in C99. It contains
a lexer, a parser, and the appropriate constructs; it does AST and
semantic analysis. It is currently used as a frontend to the
libFirm intermediate representation. However, it can be used
independently, and also is able to bootstrap itself. Currently, cparser
uses an external preprocessor.
