bug#9677: Compiling geiser doc.scm failure.

bug#9677: Compiling geiser doc.scm failure.

[Dale Smith]

I was having some difficulty using geiser with a recent guile, and
noticed an error in my *geiser messages* buffer:

INFO: RETORT: ((error (key . retort-syntax)) (output . ";;; note:

$1 = done

The message wasn't that helpful in locating the problem, so I tried
compiling the file directly:

That looks more like a problem with guile than geiser so I did a
bisect from the 2.0.2 release:

Thanks for the report.  I believe that I have fixed this now in
stable-2.0 and master.

Cheers,

Andy
