Subject: scm_cell vs threads build option
Date: Sun, 02 Sep 2007 10:33:37 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87fy1x9a8u.fsf@zip.com.au> (raw)
I gave Rob's new debian packaged 1.8.2 a go and found a bit of a problem
with scm_cell. The new packages have threads enabled, where the old
ones had it disabled, and alas that setting infects the inlined
scm_cell(). If you built your app against the old and run it against
the new then it bombs on SCM_FREELIST_LOC doing the different "thread
key" thingie access.
I guess scm_cell has been inlined that way for a while, but it'd be
worth thinking about not inlining it, or only inlining for internal
uses, in the interests of binary compatibility among as many build
options as possible.
I struck the problem in my own build of guile-gtk, not sure what
packaged stuff might be affected. gnome-games seems ok. Anything using
smobs probably isn't.
