Yep. (Of course the removal of 'random was entirely appropriate when there were functions missing.) > If so, then it should be OK to drop the slib.scm code that > removes 'array from *features*, but someone else may want to > double-check. Sounds likely. Same story I think, extra bits added. > - slib:eval -- should it be using slib-module or > interaction-environment? There's something going on in the whole of guile.init with modules that I couldn't figure out. Eg. the aliasing define to define-public. There's probably a reason for it. _______________________________________________ Guile-devel mailing list Guile-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-devel
