Dear CHICKEN users, We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of CHICKEN 4.9.0 at the following URL: http://code.call-cc.org/releases/4.9.0/chicken-4.9.0.tar.gz
There are a great many changes in this release since 4.8.0. The most important bugfixes are those which address 6 security issues: CVE-2014-3776, CVE-2013-4385, CVE-2013-4385, CVE-2013-2024, CVE-2013-2075 and CVE-2012-6122. Important new features are an update of the shipped copy of the Irregex package to the upstream version of 0.9.2, (basic) support for 5 new platforms: Android, iOS, AIX and GNU Hurd and MingW-64. Support for "deployment" of binaries has been improved, and a few changes to the basic syntax have been made for those parts of R7RS that require support from the core system (R7RS-small will be fully supported through an egg). Finally, to verify your setup is functioning properly, it is now possible to run "make check" *before* installing CHICKEN. You can find the full list of changes in the NEWS file available here: http://code.call-cc.org/releases/4.9.0/NEWS Thanks to all who contributed bug reports, feature requests and fixes. Kind regards, The CHICKEN Team _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list Chicken-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
