It's generally a good thing for a compiler to look into constant expressions and reason based on them. In fact I'd much rather have the compiler thinking about my constants than have macros. Macros seem like a good idea but 9 times out of 10 they're not really. _______________________________________________ Guile-devel mailing list Guile-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-devel
