Hi Guilers! I'd like to release 1.8.3 soonish, i.e., this week-end or next week. I can take care of it if no-one disagrees.
The current `NEWS' excerpt is already quite large: Changes in 1.8.3 (since 1.8.2) * New modules (see the manual for details) ** `(srfi srfi-35)' ** `(srfi srfi-37)' * Bugs fixed ** The `(ice-9 slib)' module now works as expected ** Expressions like "(set! 'x #t)" no longer yield a crash ** Warnings about duplicate bindings now go to stderr ** A memory leak in `make-socket-address' was fixed ** Alignment issues (e.g., on SPARC) in network routines were fixed ** A threading issue that showed up at least on NetBSD was fixed ** Build problems on Solaris fixed * Implementation improvements ** The reader is now faster, which reduces startup time ** Procedures returned by `record-accessor' and `record-modifier' are faster If you think of news items that were omitted, or critical bugs that haven't been fixed, please send a message. I'll look into the pthreads "braces around initializer" issue (Solaris/IRIX), too. Thanks, Ludovic. _______________________________________________ Guile-devel mailing list Guile-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-devel
