make check fails (guile 1.4.1.97)

make check fails (guile 1.4.1.97)

[Andreas Voegele]

When I run "make check" after building guile 1.4.1.97 (under
Linux/i386 with gcc 3.3.2, binutils 2.14 and glibc 2.3.2) one test
fails:

[...]
FAIL: r4rs.test: (6 9): (#<procedure leaf-eq? (x y)> (a (b (c))) ((a) b c))
UNRESOLVED: symbols.test: gensym: does not accept a symbol prefix

Totals for this test run:
passes:                 2279
failures:               1
unexpected passes:      0
expected failures:      17
unresolved test cases:  13
untested test cases:    0
unsupported test cases: 28
errors:                 0

FAIL: check-guile
===================
1 of 1 tests failed
===================

Can anyone reproduce this error?

could you replace the `leaf-eq?' proc in r4rs.test w/ the following and
post or email the output of "export DEBUG=1 ; ./check-guile r4rs.test"
run from $(top_builddir)?

(define (leaf-eq? x y)
  (let* ((eot (list 'eot))
         (xf (next-leaf-generator x eot))
         (yf (next-leaf-generator y eot)))
    (letrec ((loop (lambda (x y)
                     (pk 'x x 'y y)
                     (cond ((not (eq? x y)) #f)
                           ((eq? eot x) #t)
                           (else (loop (xf) (yf)))))))
      (loop (xf) (yf)))))

there is an extra `pk' here, to see where things are failing.  in the
meantime i'll try to find a system where those software versions are
installed (or install them locally but that will take more time).  if
anyone has a handy ssh-able shell account dmz'd somewhere w/ the above
software that i can use temporarily to debug this, feel free to ping me
off-list.

   Can anyone reproduce this error?

fwiw, 1.4.1.98 builds and passes "make check" on an i686 w/ gcc 3.3.2,
ld (binutils) 2.14.90.0.6, and /lib/libc-2.3.2.so.  i was not able to
reproduce the described problem w/ 1.4.1.97 or intermediate versions
w/ this configuration.  perhaps upgrading binutils would help?

I figured out that it depends on the CFLAGS settings whether the test
fails or not.  I forgot to mention the flags since I use a generic
script to build most packages.  By the default "-O3 -march=i586
-fomit-frame-pointer" is used.  The strange thing is that other tests
fail when Guile 1.4 is built with "-g" or "-O", for example.  The
tests succeed when I unset CFLAGS.  No problems with Guile 1.6, no
matter which CFLAGS are used.

BTW, it seems that Guile 1.4 doesn't support DESTDIR fully.

   [problems related to CFLAGS]
   No problems with Guile 1.6, no
   matter which CFLAGS are used.

i'll take a peek at the 1.6 configuration for clues.

   BTW, it seems that Guile 1.4 doesn't support DESTDIR fully.

what behavior do you observe?

probably a better question is: could you post your build script?
that way i can test against it directly.
