Details:
The procedure current-time in srfi-19 returns a time record:
guile> (current-time)
#<time type: time-utc nanosecond: ...
...except when the time type time-process is requested in which case a list
is returned:
guile> (current-time time-process)
(time-process ...
This causes other functionality to break, for example time-difference:
guile> (time-difference
(current-time)
(current-time))
#<time type: time-duration nanosecond: ...
guile> (time-difference
(current-time time-process)
(current-time time-process))
...
... not-a-record (time-process ...
ABORT: (misc-error)
Suggested fix:
There are two definitions of priv:current-time-process in srfi-19.scm. The
first returns a time record, and second returns the list. Commenting out the
second gives me the behavior I expected.
thanks for your time,
Scott Shedden
