I see that calling `(collect-garbage 'major)` returns a number when it should return `(void)`. Repair pushed, but I don't that we'll get this repair into the release. For v7.4, Racket CS will be advertised as "beta". It's close enough to be worth trying (to expose bugs like this one), but there are likely to be too many problems to switch to it for production use for most Racket projects. > Also, in one of the test runs, I got a warning printed out on the console: > > (racket.exe:6532): Pango-WARNING **: 20:39:36.824: couldn't load font > "Helvetica Bold Not-Rotated 14px", falling back to "Sans Bold Not-Rotated > 14px", expect ugly output. > > I only got this warning once and could not reproduce it anymore.

The problem here is that Pango warnings (or warnings from glib-based libraries i ngeneral) are not being redirected to logging. I forgot to fill in that piece for Racket CS, and I'll put it back on my list. > Should I create issues for these in the Racket, or some other repository? Racket issues are fine, although the latter is probably more specifically a `racket/draw` issue. Thanks for your consistent help!
