scm_c_define_gsubr() and modules in Guile 1.6

scm_c_define_gsubr() and modules in Guile 1.6

[stefan]

Hello!

A short question about symbols created by scm_c_define_gsubr() or
scm_c_define():  Why can't these symbols not be used within modules like
this:

(define-module (test-suite))
...
(export test-suite)

It worked in Guile 1.4 versions, but is broken/improved? in the Guile 1.6
version.

Thanks in advance,
	stefan@lkcc.org

I'm not sure I follow your question.  Could you rephrase?

Sorry for my bad english, please... next try:

I do have a .c file containing e.g.

	scm_c_define("my_symbol", ...)

then I can use 'my_symbol' in normal .scm files.  So far, so good.

But when do create a .scm file which contains this:

	(define-module (test-suite))
	...
		(my-symbol ...)
	...
	(export test-suite)

And then I have a nother .scm file which contains:

	(use-modules (test-suite))
	...
	(test-suite)

(This imports the above module file, which wants to evaluate the symbol
'my_symbol')

This does not work in Guile 1.6 and above, it worked in Guile 1.4 version.
Why is the symbol 'my_symbol' not visible in the module?  How can I
achieve it without recoding the .c file?

Thanks in advacne,
