Hi! When running `step.scm' (attached) the expected behaviour is exit 0. Using auto compilation or default optimization options, that's what happens --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ rm -f step.go && guile -e '(step)' step.scm 15:39:41 janneke@dundal:~/src/bug-0 --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- However, when compiled with a particular set of optimization options (see attached compile.scm), I get --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ rm -f step.go && guile -L . -C . compile.scm && guile -L . -C . -e '(step)' ;;; WARNING (buggy (#:eliminate-dead-code? #f #:cse? #f)) Backtrace: 4 (apply-smob/1 #) In ice-9/boot-9.scm: 705:2 3 (call-with-prompt ("prompt") # #) In ice-9/eval.scm: 619:8 2 (_ #(#(#))) In oop/goops.scm: 1490:4 1 (cache-miss ()) In unknown file: 0 (scm-error goops-error #f "No applicable method for ~S in call ~S" (#< .status (1)> (…)) #) ERROR: In procedure scm-error: No applicable method for #< .status (1)> in call (.status ()) [1]15:40:09 janneke@dundal:~/src/bug-0 --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- The error message seems to suggest that `one' is now the empty list. This is with Guile 2.2.4 from current Guix master. Greetings, janneke
