Changelog:
Changes affecting backwards compatibility
All strutils.rfind procs now take start and last like strutils.find with the same data slice/index meaning. This is backwards compatible for calls not changing the rfind start parameter from its default. (#11487)
In the unlikely case that you were using rfind X, start=N, or rfind X, N, then you need to change that to rfind X, last=N or rfind X, 0, N. (This should minimize gotchas porting code from other languages like Python or C++.)
On Windows stderr/stdout/stdin are not opened as binary files anymore. Use the switch -d:nimBinaryStdFiles for a transition period.
Breaking changes in the standard library
Mac OS X / BSD: TSa_Family is now the uint8 type, so type conversions like x.sin_family = uint16 toInt(nativesockets.AF_INET) need to be changed into x.sin_family = TSa_Family toInt(nativesockets.AF_INET).
Library additions
toOpenArray is now available for the JS target.

This also addresses PR/54316.
Please note: this bootstrap is built against 8.99.50, i.e. fairly
recent -current. This should make it possible to build rust on
this OS version. The previous bootstrap kit was built against
8.99.35, and apparently a C++ update happened since then making
the older bootstrap kit unusable on a fresh, new -current.

"Commodore BASIC" (cbmbasic) is a 100% compatible version of Commodore's
version of Microsoft BASIC 6502 as found on the Commodore 64. You can use it
in interactive mode or pass a BASIC file as a command line parameter.
cbmbasic does not emulate 6502 code; all code is completely native. On a
1 GHz CPU you get about 1000x speed compared to a 1 MHz 6502.
In 5.1.0 the binary-version was bumped to 11. Update OWN_DIRS
accordingly and introduce CHICKEN_BINARY_VERSION variable to
automatically adjust OWN_DIRS and PLIST.

Changelog:
5.1.0
- Core libraries
- Symbols ending or starting with a colon are now always pipe-quoted
when written by `write` to ensure they can be read back with a
different keyword-style setting.
- Read-write invariance of special symbols starting with #! other
than #!key, #!rest or #!optional is now preserved (#1572).
- When using (set-file-position!) on a port, its EOF status will now
be reset.
- In (chicken file posix), the values of perm/irgrp, perm/iwgrp,
perm/ixgrp, perm/iroth, perm/iwoth and perm/ixoth are now correctly
defined (they were all for "usr"; #1602, thanks to Eric Hoffman).
- In (chicken file posix), `file-truncate` now accepts also accepts
port objects, for consistency with other file procedures.
All such procedures from (chicken file posix) now have the correct
types in types.db (fixes#1609, thanks to Robert Jensen).
- Add the system-config-directory and system-cache-directory procedures
in the chicken.platform module. These procedures follow the XDG
specification and also give sensible results on Windows.
- Fix get-environment from (chicken process-context) to raise an
error when passed #f instead of segfaulting.
- Qualified symbols (##foo#bar style) are no longer encoded by a
byte prefix inside the symbol name. This ensures read-write
invariance of symbols which start with a low-byte character
(fixes#1077, except for keywords, which start with NUL bytes).
- Fix a missing export (list->s64vector) in SRFI-4.
- Runtime system
- Keywords are now distinct types; they are not a subtype of symbols.
- Use arc4random on FreeBSD (thanks to Tobias Kortkamp and gahr)
- Removed the unused, undocumented (and incorrect!) C functions
C_delete_symbol_table and C_set_symbol_table.
- Continuations which discard additional values beyond the first no
longer accept multiple values via direct invocation after being
captured through `call/cc`, only via `values` (revert of #1390,
due to #1601)
- SRFI-4 vector predicates, reference, set and length procedures
should now be faster in tight loops as they're inlineable (#757).
- Keywords are now interned in a separate keyword table, not in the
standard symbol table. This brings full read-write invariance
for symbols (they can now also start with NUL bytes). Keywords
no longer have plists. Fixes#1576.
- Increased the "binary compatibility version" to 11.
- Compiler
- Restored optimized implementations of =, +, -, /, * and quotient in
fixnum-arithmetic mode (fixes#1604 mostly; thanks to "chickendan").
- Added an optimization pass for reducing the amount of boxing of
intermediate floating point values, enabled by the "-lfa2" compiler
option.
- The "lfa2" pass is now enabled at optimization levels 2 or higher.
- Module system
- When you try to import the module you are currently defining into
itself, an error will be raised. This prevents an infinite loop in
the compiler when later trying to import that same module (fixes
#1506, thanks to Kristian Lein-Mathisen).
- Foreign function interface
- Improved hygiene in FFI macro expansions, which means you don't
have to import "scheme" or "(chicken base)" for them to work.
- Type system
- It is now possible to quote free variables in type declarations,
which acts as shorthand for `forall' (thanks to "megane")
- Tools
- csi now uses (system-config-directory) to find csirc and falls back to
$HOME/.csirc when needed.
- chicken-install now uses (system-config-directory) to find a user
defined setup.defaults file ; it also uses (system-cache-directory)
for its egg cache directory when the CHICKEN_EGG_CACHE environment
variable is not defined.
- Egg specifications
- Allows "cond-expand" and "error" forms in egg specification files.
- Add "c-object" and "object" properties to link separately compiled
C objects into CHICKEN code.

Changes in 2.2.5 (since 2.2.4):
* Notable improvements
** Greatly improved performance of bidirectional pipes.
The performance of bidirectional pipes, as created using 'open-pipe' or
'open-pipe*' in OPEN_BOTH mode, has been greatly improved. When reading
large blocks of binary data from a bidirectional pipe, the maximum
bandwidth has been increased by a factor of ~10^3 in some cases.
** New 'get-bytevector-some!' I/O primitive.
This new I/O primitive is similar to 'get-bytevector-some' from the
R6RS, except that it writes its data to a user-specified range of
indices in an existing bytevector. As a corollary, it is also now
possible to specify a maximum number of bytes to read. Note that
'get-bytevector-some', and now 'get-bytevector-some!', are unique among
Guile's I/O primitives in their support of efficient binary reads of
potentially large blocks while also allowing for short reads, to avoid
undesired blocking. Now these operations can be performed while also
avoiding heap-allocation.
'get-bytevector-some!' is needed to efficiently implement the new
bidirectional pipes, which are built upon R6RS custom binary
input/output ports.
** get-bytevector-{n!,some,some!} now support suspendable I/O.
Scheme implementations of 'get-bytevector-n!', 'get-bytevector-some',
and 'get-bytevector-some!' have been added to (ice-9 suspendable-ports).
As a result, these I/O operations now support suspendable I/O.
* Compiler improvements
** guild compile: Add -Wshadowed-toplevel.
Top-level definitions that shadow previous top-level definitions from
the same compilation unit will now trigger a compile-time warning, if
-Wshadowed-toplevel is enabled. It is enabled by default.
** guild compile: Add '-x' flag.
Passing "-x EXT" to 'guild compile' will now cause EXT to be recognized
as a valid source file name extension. For example, to compile R6RS
code, you might want to pass "-x .sls" so that files ending in ".sls"
can be found.
* Miscellaneous improvements
** Bootstrap optimization
eval.go and psyntax-pp.go are now built before the rest of the .go files
so that they are processed by a fast macro expander. This saves time
when using parallel builds.
** put-u8 now always writes a single byte, regardless of the port encoding.
Previously, (put-u8 PORT OCTET) worked as expected only when writing to
binary ports, i.e. those with port encoding "ISO-8859-1" a.k.a. Latin-1.
Strictly speaking, this meets the requirements of the R6RS 'put-u8',
which need only support binary ports. However, Guile in fact allows
binary I/O to be performed on any port, and yet 'put-u8' behaved in a
surprising way with other port encodings: it would perform a _textual_
I/O operation, writing the character with Unicode scalar value OCTET.
Now, 'put-u8' always writes a single byte with value OCTET, regardless
of the port encoding.
** Optimize fixnum exact integer square roots.
'exact-integer-sqrt' now avoids heap allocation when applied to a
fixnum. 'sqrt' now avoids heap allocation when applied to a fixnum
that's a perfect square. Fewer heap allocations are now required when
applying 'sqrt' to a square of an exact rational whose numerator or
denominator are fixnums.
** scm_mkstrport: Optimize the POS -> BYTE_POS conversion.
scm_mkstrport now avoids an unnecessary heap allocation and conversion
to UTF-8, when STR is provided and POS is non-zero.
** SRFI-19: Support ~N in string->date.
Support for the ~N escape, which allows fractions of a second to be
parsed, is now supported in SRFI-19 'string->date'.
** SRFI-19: Update the leap second table.
The leap on 1 January 2017 was added to SRFI-19's leap second table.
** stexi->shtml: Add support for @i, @math, @tie and @dots.
stexi->shtml is now able to convert @i, @math, @tie and @dots to HTML.
** Define AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT, and AT_EMPTY_PATH.
AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW, AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT, and AT_EMPTY_PATH are now available
from Scheme, if supported on the platform.
** Improvements to the 'time' macro from (ice-9 time).
The 'time' macro now supports expressions that return multiple values.
It has also been rewritten as a hygienic 'syntax-rules' macro.
Previously, it was built using 'define-macro', and was therefore
unhygienic. This is not merely an internal implementation detail, but
is potentially relevant to any user of the 'time' macro, since it could
lead to unintended variable capture and other problems.
** Clarify the documentation for 'nil?'.
See commit b44f505f1571fc9c42e58982f161a9cfc81fb7f4.
** Clarify the manual's "Processes" section.
See commit 8cdd3a0773930ca872a13aada7a1344f03bb382b.
** Avoid 'with-latin1-locale' in binary I/O tests.
See commit 162a031e5f2c64cd23fcf069fb7b5071196f9527.
** Update user-visible copyright years.
* Bug fixes
** Avoid regexp ranges in HTTP inter-protocol exploitation check.
The regular expression used to check for HTTP inter-protocol
exploitation attacks previously used a character range '0-9', whose
meaning depends on the current locale. This has now been fixed.
** Fixes to the SRFI-19 time/date library.
*** TAI-to-UTC conversion leaps at the wrong time.
<https://bugs.gnu.org/21911>
*** time-utc->date shows bogus zone-dependent leap second.
<https://bugs.gnu.org/22034>
*** Manual incorrectly describes Julian Date.
<https://bugs.gnu.org/21902>
*** date->string duff ISO 8601 negative years.
<https://bugs.gnu.org/21903>
*** date->string duff ISO 8601 format for non-4-digit years.
<https://bugs.gnu.org/21904>
*** julian-day->date negative input breakage.
<https://bugs.gnu.org/21906>
*** time-duration screws up negative durations.
<https://bugs.gnu.org/26162>
*** time-difference doesn't detect error of differing time types.
<https://bugs.gnu.org/26163>
** Improve overflow checks in bytevector, string, and I/O operations.
Several numerical computations, performed using primitive C arithmetic
in Guile's core bytevector, string, and I/O operations, have been
rewritten to avoid overflows.
** Fix type inferencing for 'nil?' and 'null?' predicates.
Previously, the compiler would sometimes miscompile certain combinations
of 'nil?' and 'null?' predicates present within the same top-level form.
See <https://bugs.gnu.org/33036>.
** Fix 'atomic-box-compare-and-swap!'.
Previously, 'atomic-box-compare-and-swap!' would sometimes spuriously
fail on architectures based on Load-Linked/Store-Conditional (LL/SC)
synchronication primitives (e.g. ARM, PowerPC, and MIPS) in a way that
was undetectable by the caller. See <https://bugs.gnu.org/32786>.
** Make URI handling locale independent.
Previously, procedures in (web uri) would misbehave in some locales
including sv_SE. See <https://bugs.gnu.org/35785>.
** Strings, i18n: Limit the use of alloca to approximately 8 kilobytes.
Previously, 'string-locale-ci=?', 'string-locale-ci<?',
'string-locale<?', 'string-locale-{downcase,upcase,titlecase}' and
'string-normalize-{nfd,nfc,nfkd,nfkc}' would overflow the C stack when
applied to very large strings.
** Fix documentation of R6RS 'binary-port?' to reflect reality.
Previously, the documentation incorrectly stated that 'binary-port?'
always returns #t. In fact, it returns #t if and only if the port
encoding is "ISO-8859-1". The documentation for 'binary-port?' and
'textual-port?' has been rewritten to reflect the current reality, and
also to leave open the possibility of changing the behavior of these
predicates in a future version of Guile.
** Avoid passing NULL to 'memcpy' and 'memcmp'.
Previously, NULL was sometimes passed to 'memcpy' or 'memcmp' when the
size argument was 0.
** Save and restore errno in the signal handler.
Previously, Guile's synchronous C signal handler failed to save and
restore 'errno', although it might change its value. This could
potentially lead to spurious corruptions of 'errno' within threads
interrupted by signals.
** scm_to_stringn: Avoid passing NULL to c_strcasecmp.
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-user/2019-05/msg00070.html>
** r6rs-ports: Accept 'port-position' values greater than 2^32.
<https://bugs.gnu.org/32161>
** r6rs-ports: 'put-bytevector' accepts 64-bit integers.
Fixed in commit 741c45458da0831a12a4f8d729814bf9f2cb6571.
** Fix R6RS call-with-{input,output}-file to open textual ports.
<https://bugs.gnu.org/32329>
** Update (ice-9 match) to include selected bug fixes from upstream.
