Oh, it may very well be a recursion. I was just asking in case there is anything that points into that direction, to give us a hint at what's going wrong here. > > Adding "-debug p" produces no output, even when removing "-quiet". > When I remove "-no-trace" and add "-debug p" it also fails in the same > way.

What happens if you add "-:d" and/or "-:s500k" (or "-:s1m")? It is possible that different stack settings influence the behaviour. Is chicken-boot built with -g ? If not, could you add it and run it under gdb, producing a backtrace by interrupt the program if it hangs? Sorry, but this is likely to need quite a lowlevel approach. Another option is to give me temporary access to your machine. cheers, felix _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list Chicken-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
