Changes are:
+ Bug fixes:
o If DESTDIR was set and the platform didn't have previous Gauche
installed, make install failed saying something like
"libgauche-0.9.so.0.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file
or directory". The order of installation was adjusted to avoid it.
o On FreeBSD, a bug in signal setup routine caused memory corruption.
o every with more than one argument list didn't return the last
return value of the predicate when all the arguments satisfied it,
as specified in srfi-1 (it returned #t instead). It was also the
case in stream-every. Both are fixed.
o On MinGW, info command didn't work.
o On MinGW, when you used non-console version gosh-noconsole.exe and
tried to spawn a child process to communicate via pipes,
gosh-noconsole.exe just died.
+ Improvements:
o New procedure: string-scan-right
o GC is now 7.2b
Changes from 4.0.0 to 4.0.1
---------------------------
1. The default handling of backslash in sub() and gsub() has been reverted to
the behavior of 3.1. It was silly to think I could break compatibility that
way, even for standards compliance.
2. Completed the implementation of Rational Range Interpretation.
3. Failure to get the group set is no longer a fatal error.
4. Lots of minor bugs fixed and portability clean-ups along the way. See
the ChangeLog for details.
For some reason, LLVM is using autoconf files from 2003 which is before
DragonFly even existed. I submitted a bug report #12944 at llvm.org's
bugzilla to request they use versions from 2012.
Also, installation fails at document generation without some extra tools.
No need to revbump, either built or it didn't without these packages.
Changes since 3.2.6:
3.2.10 * add patch Finn Wilcox finnw
ocstring cannot concat: or at:insert: itself - ID: 1640788

changes in sbcl-1.0.57 relative to sbcl-1.0.56:
* RANDOM enhancements and bug fixes:
** bug fix: the range and distribution of random integers could be
catastrophically wrong when the compiler derived the type of its
argument as a disjoint set of small integers.
** bug fix: the distribution of random integers is now completely
uniform even when the specified limit is not a power of two.
(Previously some values could be about 0.1 % more probable than
others in the worst case.)
** RANDOM on large integer arguments is generally faster and conses
less than before; this is visible for fixnums above a length of
about 24 bits, but extremely so for bignums: the old implementation
used time and space quadratical in the size of the argument there,
the new one is linear.
* enhancement: redesigned protocol for quitting SBCL. SB-EXT:EXIT is the new
main entry point, SB-EXT:QUIT is deprecated.
* enhancement: additions to the SB-THREAD API: RETURN-FROM-THREAD,
ABORT-THREAD, MAIN-THREAD-P, and MAIN-THREAD.
* enhancement: FASL loading no longer grabs the world-lock.
* enhancement: GENCGC reclaims space more aggressively when objects being
allocated are a large fraction of the total available heap space.
(lp#936304)
* enhancement: backtraces show the correct number of arguments for frames
called with too many arguments.
* enhancement: support for abort(3), exit(3), and _exit(2) has been added to
SB-POSIX.
* enhancement: ASDF has been updated 2.21.
* optimization: fewer uses of full calls to signed modular functions.
(lp#903821)
* optimization: typechecking alien values is typically 5 x faster.
* optimization: FDEFINITION, SYMBOL-FUNCTION, MACRO-FUNCTION, and FBOUNDP
are 20% faster.
* bug fix: file compilation performance issues when dumping subtypes
of CHARACTER (lp#994487)
* bug fix: fixed disassembly of some SSE instructions on x86-64.
* bug fix: SB-SIMPLE-STREAMS signals an error for bogus :CLASS arguments in
OPEN. (lp#969352, thanks to Kambiz Darabi)
* bug fix: CASE normal-clauses do not allow T and OTHERWISE as keys.
(lp#959687)
* bug fix: (SETF (FIND-CLASS X) NIL) removed proper name of the underlying
classoid even if X was not the proper name of the class. (lp#941102)
* bug fix: declaration leakage between lexical environments due to careless
use of NCONC in MAKE-LEXENV. (lp#924276)
* bug fix: ENSURE-DIRECTORIES-EXIST now works when
*default-pathname-defaults* contains NAME or TYPE components.
* bug fix: PPRINT couldn't print improper lists with CARs being some symbols
from CL package, e.g. (loop . 10).
* bug fix: run-program with existent or non-existent files for :output or
:input when :if-output-exists or :if-input-does-not-exist are NIL properly
returns NIL instead of signalling an obscure error.
* bug fix: fix miscompilation of some logand forms with large constant
arguments. (lp#974406)
* bug fix: account for funcallable-instance objects properly in ROOM.
* bug fix: incorrect octets reported for c-string decoding errors.
(lp#985505)
* bug fix: miscompilation of LDB on the PowerPC platform. (thanks to Bruce
O'Neel)
* bug fix: better input error reporting for COMPILE-FILE. (lp#493380)
* bug fix: default size of non-nursery generations has been shrunk on GENCGC,
allowing faster release of memory back to the OS. (lp#991293)
* bug fix: WITH-DEADLINE (:SECONDS NIL :OVERRIDE T) now drops any
existing deadline for the dynamic scope of its body.
* bug fix: compiler-internal interval arithmetic needed to be more
conservative about open intervals when operated on by monotonic but not
strictly-monotonic functions. (lp#975528)
* bug fix: copy-tree caused stack exhaustion on long linear lists, and now
it's also slightly faster. (lp#998926)
* bug fix: better error messages for malformed declarations.
(lp#1000239)
* bug fix: define-condition didn't return the name of the defined condition.
* documentation:
** improved docstrings: REPLACE (lp#965592)
* Major New Features
- AddressSanitizer, a fast memory error detector.
- MachineInstr Bundles, Support to model instruction bundling / packing.
- ARM Integrated Assembler, A full featured assembler and direct-to-object
support for ARM.
- Basic Block Placement Probability driven basic block placement.
* LLVM IR and Core Improvements
- A new type representing 16 bit half floating point values has been added.
- IR now supports vectors of pointers, including vector GEPs.
- Module flags have been introduced. They convey information about the module
as a whole to LLVM subsystems. This is currently used to encode Objective C
ABI information.
- Loads can now have range metadata attached to them to describe the possible
values being loaded.
- The llvm.ctlz and llvm.cttz intrinsics now have an additional argument which
indicates whether the behavior of the intrinsic is undefined on a zero
input. This can be used to generate more efficient code on platforms that
only have instructions which don't return the type size when counting bits
in 0.
* Optimizer Improvements
- The loop unroll pass now is able to unroll loops with run-time trip counts.
This feature is turned off by default, and is enabled with the
-unroll-runtime flag.
- A new basic-block autovectorization pass is available. Pass -vectorize to
run this pass along with some associated post-vectorization cleanup passes.
For more information, see the EuroLLVM 2012 slides: Autovectorization with
LLVM.
- Inline cost heuristics have been completely overhauled and now closely model
constant propagation through call sites, disregard trivially dead code
costs, and can model C++ STL iterator patterns.
While here,
* register egg-info.
* add patch to enable rpath, custom post-build should not be required anymore.
Changes from 4.2.2 to 4.2.3
1) Added support for Python 3.2.
2) Added hook for datetime module which implicitly imports the time module.
3) Fixed hook for tkinter in Python 3.x.
4) Always include the zlib module since the zipimport module requires it,
even when compression is not taking place.
5) Added sample for a tkinter application.
gprolog fails to build on DragonFly-*-i386.
A fatal error (exception raised) occurs on fd2c.pl:215-220 on this
platform. The build hangs after that (halts bulk build forever),
another job apparently never exits.
Setting the package to a single job fixes the problem, so apparently
a successful build is jobs safe, but not a build failure.
OpenJDK7 wouldn't build on DragonFly for non-root users due to a conflict
with the bootstrap/LICENSE file. Both the -bin-common and the
-bin-dragonfly bootstraps contained the same file, both with 444 file
permissions. As a result, the extraction phase fails for non-root pbulk
builds and other under-privileged users.
The DragonFly bootstraps were repacked to exclude the duplicate
bootstrap/LICENSE file, and the bootstrap.mk file updated accordingly.
The new bootstraps are packed with xz, resulting in a tarball 6MB
smaller for i386.
Other changes while we're here:
1) Add LICENSE=gnu-gpl-v2
2) USE_TOOLS+= patch (pkglint complained)
3) Fix ONLY_FOR_PLATFORM triplet for DragonFly (pkglint complained)
Here is list of changes:
0.9.3.2:
Fix documentation build problem when configured to use non default
encoding.
0.9.3.1:
Fix build problem on Windows/MinGW.
0.9.3:
* New Features
o Lazy sequences: An efficient and seamless support of mixing lazy
evaluation with ordinary list procedures. Forcing delayed
evaluation is implicit, so you can pass lazy list to normal list
procedures such as car or fold. See the manual entry for the
details and examples.
o gauche.generator: A general utilities for generators, a thunk that
generates a value every time it is called. Lazy sequences are built
on top of generators. See the manual entry for the details.
o Threads are now supported on Windows/MinGW build. It is directly
based on Win32 thread API instead of pthreads; but Scheme-level
semantics are almost the same. The cond-expand conditions are
slightly modified to accomodate both thread models--- see Threads
for the details.
o add-load-path macro now accepts an optional argument to make the
given path relative to the currently loaded file. This is useful to
distribute a script accompanied with library files; for example,
specify (add-load-path "." :relative) in the script makes the
library files searched from the same directory where the script
exists. Then users can just copy the directory to anywhere and run
the script.
o A chained-application macro $: Incorporated the feature which has
been experimented as gauche.experimental.app. This macro allows (f
a b (g c d (h i j))) to be written as ($ f a b $ g c d $ h i j).
Although it is slighly longer, it is sometimes work better with
indentation of deeply nested function calls. See the manual entry
for the full explanation.
o A new gosh option -m module allows the main procedure to be
searched in the specified module instead of the default user
module. This allows a Scheme file to work both as a library module
and an executable scripts (e.g. for running tests or demos); name
the test program main but not export it, and it won't affect
ordinary module users, but you can test the module by using -m
option.
* Incompatibile Changes
o util.queue: Thread-safe queue can now be created with zero
max-length, which is handy as a synchronization device. This is an
incompatible change---previously, specyfing zero to :max-length
means unlimited queue length. (Cf: Queue of zero length
http://blog.practical-scheme.net/gauche/20110107-zero-length-queue ).
o Fixed a regexp bug in treatment of BOL/EOL assertions (^, $) within
the assetion blocks such as (?=...). Regarding BOL/EOL assertions,
these assertion blocks are treated as if they're stand-alone. The
fixed behavior is now compatible with Perl and Oniguruma. The code
that counted on the previous (buggy) behavior may break by this
change.
o Removed gauche.auxsys module. This module contained several
less-used system procedures; now they are in the core. The module
was autoloaded, so not many code should be affected by this change.
Only the code that explicitly refer to this module needs to be
changed.
* Improvements
o Many frequently-used list procedures (all of util.list, and some of
srfi-1) are now included in the core. The module util.list is no
longer needed, although it is kept just for the backward
compatibility. From srfi-1, the following procedures are now in the
core: null-list?, cons*, last, member (extended one), take, drop,
take-right, drop-right, take!, drop-right!, delete, delete!,
delete-duplicates, delete-duplicates!, assoc (extended one),
alist-copy, alist-delete, alist-delete!, any, every, filter,
filter!, remove, remove!, filter-map, fold, fold-right, find,
find-tail, split-at, split-at!, iota.
o New macros and procedures: values->list, fold-left,
regexp-num-groups, regexp-named-groups.
o New procedure applicable? can be used to check object's
applicability finer than procedure?. Related, a special class
<bottom> is added, which behaves as a subtype of any classes.
o Build process is overhauled to allow out-of-source-tree build.
o Regular expression engine is slightly improved. For example, it now
calculates the set of characters that can be a beginning of a part
of regexp, and uses it to skip the input efficiently.
o thread-terminate! now attempts to terminate the target thread
gracefully, and only tries the forceful means when the gracefull
termination fails.
o open-input-file now accepts :encoding #t argument, which tells the
procedure to use a coding-aware port. That is, it can recognize
coding: ... specification in the beginning of the file. Useful to
process source files.
o map is now restart-safe, that is, saving continuations in middle of
mapping and restarting it doesn't affect previous results. This is
required in R6RS.
o Various small improvements in the compiler and VM stack layout.
o gauche.test: test-module now checks the number of arguments given
to the global procedures. This is useful to catch careless
mistakes. In rare cases that you do intend to pass number of
arguments incompatible to the normal usage of the procedures, list
such procedures in :bypass-arity-check keyword argument (It is
possible because of the dynamic nature of the language---methods of
a different signature may be added later, for example).
o gauche.test: test-end has a keyword argument to exit with non-zero
status if test failed. New function test-summary-check exits with
non-zero status when the test record file indicates there have been
failures. Both are useful to propagate test failure to upper levels
such as continuous integration server.
o srfi-42: Support :generator qualifier to allow using generator
procedures in a sense of gauche.generator.
o file.util: touch-file and touch-files takes various keyword
arguments similar to touch(1) command.
o rfc.http: A new parameter http-proxy allows to set the default http
proxy. The https connection now uses a library bundled to Gauche,
no longer requires external stunnel command.
o GC is bumped to bdwgc 7.2-alpha6.
* Bux fixes
o Fixed an incorrect rounding bug when inexact numbers were given to
div and mod.
o Fixed another division bug in /., when both dividend and divisor
are too big to be represented by floating-point numbers.
o In quasiquote expander, unquote and unquote-splicing are recognized
hygienically.
o force is now thread-safe.
o Fixed some MT-hazards in file loading/requiring. Thanks to Kirill
Zorin for tracking those hard-to-find bugs.
o Fixed a bug that made (regexp-compile '(alt)) Bus Error.
o Fixed another regexp bug that didn't handle case-folding match
beyond ASCII range. Patch from OOHASHI Daichi.
o gauche.parameter: Accessing parameters created in unrelated threads
used to raise an error. It was annoying, since such situation could
occur inadvertently when autoload is involved. Now the parameters
work regardless of where they are created.
o rfc.json: Fixed a bug that produced incorrect JSON.
o rfc.http: Fixed the behavior of redirection for 3xx responses. You
can also customize the behavior.
o gauche.threads: Fixed a bug in thread-sleep! when passed an exact
rational number.
o util.stream: stream-count didn't work.
* Update bootstrap for i386-DragonFly
* Add bootstrap for x86_64-DragonFly
* Update patch-aa to handle missing EM_ALPHA definition (not used anyway)
* Add patch for hotspot to handle x86_64 in uname
* Update Makefile for parallel building of hotspot
* Allow platform DragonFly 3.x
Thanks for all the hard work building the bootstraps and testing:
