Another oddity in ice-9/format.scm:
guile> (use-modules (ice-9 format))
guile> (format #f "~,######F" 123.123)
"1231.2"
ACL has a similar bug:
USER(1): (format nil "~,######F" 123.123)
"123.1"
but CMU-CL and Clisp flag it as an error.
By the way, "Common Lisp the Language" says (page 581):
"it is not an error if one or more arguments remain
unprocessed by the directive", but:
guile> (format #f "~A" 1 2)
FORMAT: error with call: (format #f "~A<===" 1 ===>2 )
1 superfluous argument
And not really a bug, I guess, but this strikes me as
weird:
guile> (format #f "~,,,,,,,F" 123.123)
"123.123"

Thanks, I recorded this in our backwater bug database, but I'm afraid
I'll need a patch for fixing this... do you have any?

Perhaps this will do it (line 740):
(if param-value-found (format:error "misplaced '#'"))
as in:
((#\#) ; Parameter is number of remaining args
(if param-value-found (format:error "misplaced '#'"))
(if modifier (format:error "misplaced modifier"))
