I came across
[<https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/4437](http://forum.nim-lang.org/postActivity.xml#https-github-com-nim-lang-nim-issues-4437),
which said that the "\--gc:none" setting is about to be replaced by
"\--gc:stack", so I tried it, and found various problems, such as
* assert is not defined
* "+=" is not defined
var
str: string
for ch in str:
# whatever
> gives the error message: Error: ambiguous call; both system.items(a: cstring)
> and system.items(a: openarray[T]) match for: (string)
But... when I tried to make a small test file to post here, it compiled without
errors!
So my question is: is the "\--gc:stack" implementation still just
work-in-progress, or should I put in some more work to reproduce these symptoms
and raise proper issues on Github?
PS: This problem is present on the latest nim version from Github, downloaded
and compiled yesterday. My host system is an up-to-date x86_64 with Arch Linux,
trying to cross-compile for --cpu:arm
