Subject: bug#60799: Bogus 'Error while printing exception' message when raising srfi-35 exception
Date: Fri, 13 Jan 2023 20:30:44 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87v8l9ewcb.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)
Hello Guile,
When raising a srfi-35 defined exception type like in the following, a
generic (and unhelpful) "Error while printing exception" message is
shown, with not even the exception type mentioned:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(use-modules (srfi srfi-35))
(define-condition-type &platform-not-found-error &error
platform-not-found-error?)
(raise-exception &platform-not-found-error)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Produces:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Backtrace:
In ice-9/boot-9.scm:
1752:10 5 (with-exception-handler _ _ #:unwind? _ # _)
In unknown file:

4388:12 0 (_)
ice-9/boot-9.scm:4388:12: Error while printing exception.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
This is probably not by design, right?

Thanks,
Maxim
