Hello all, The second release candidate for CHICKEN 5.2.0 is now available for download:
https://code.call-cc.org/dev-snapshots/2020/02/16/chicken-5.2.0rc2.tar.gz The sha256sum of that tarball is: 27d324b54aeda7163dbdb8a98d973752947e6f472336592435a788b3ba7daff2 The list of changes since 5.1.0 is available here (which is the same as that of 5.2.0rc1): https://code.call-cc.org/dev-snapshots/2020/02/16/NEWS This release candidate fixes a few build issues found during testing, and a proper bug that was filed and considered important enough to make it into the next release: - A code generation issue was found by Sven Hartrumpf, which caused the compiler to emit incorrect C code in certain very specific situation. - The interpreter would crash on ",r" due to a declaration of flonum arithmetic which was invalid. - The build on Cygwin was broken due to an invalid macro declaration of C_mkfifo(). - When compiling with an inline file for cross-module inlining, the compiler would insert calls to external static functions (#1665). Please give this new release candidate a try and report your findings to the mailing list. Here's a suggested test procedure: $ make PLATFORM=<platform> PREFIX=<directory> install check $ <directory>/bin/chicken-install awful If you can, please let us know the following information about the environment on which you test the RC: Operating system: (e.g., FreeBSD 10.1, Debian 8, Windows 7 mingw-msys) Hardware platform: (e.g., x86, x86-64, PPC) C Compiler: (e.g., GCC 4.9.2, clang 3.6) Installation works?: yes or no Tests work?: yes or no Installation of eggs works?: yes or no Thanks everyone!
