Martin,
Thanks for the report. I don't have 10.8/9 to test, only 10.7.
Something looks odd in your patch, the redirection -- I would expect it to
look like:
${cpp} ... | sed ... > ${temp}
instead of:
${cpp} ... > | sed ... ${temp}
Can you confirm what you tried (guile18)?
When you tried guile, which %v-%r did you happen to try?
One or two revisions back, I fixed a segfault at the same time, but it may
have been related to the libgc (garbage collector). Can you tell me what
version of libgc you built with?
