One thing that might help is to execute this before loading your other files: (debug-enable 'backtrace) (debug-enable 'debug) (read-enable 'positions) That may provide a lot more information about what happened where. For some reason "let" is coming to mind here, but I can't recall what might be stricter there. Maybe I'm thinking of this: (let ((foo ())) ...) which is now illegal, but I thought the error message was different for that... -- Rob Browning rlb @defaultvalue.org, @linuxdevel.com, and @debian.org Previously @cs.utexas.edu GPG=1C58 8B2C FB5E 3F64 EA5C 64AE 78FE E5FE F0CB A0AD _______________________________________________ Guile-user mailing list Guile-user@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-user
