Section(deep) [1] Illegal instruction (core dumped) (cd collects/tests/racket racket -f quiet.rktl) [...] Any idea what can be wrong? This looks like a problem with Racket's inference of the stack size. In some BSD variants, enable pthread support makes the main thread have a different size than the usual stack limit. Did you specifically enable places, futures, or pthread when configuring? (I think they're off by default for NetBSD, but I may be mistaken.) Does configuring so that `-pthread' isn't used in the compiler command change the success of the deep.rktl test? Matthew _ Racket Developers list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/dev
[racket-dev] Can't get for-label to work in Scribble docs
For some reason, when I require (for-label db/base), I still get warnings about `sql-timestamp?', `sql-time?' and `sql-date?', and red underlines under them. I'm also requiring (for-label slideshow/pict), but I get no warnings or underlines for `pict?'. Is there something special I need to do for the identifiers exported by `db/base'?

Neil T _ Racket Developers list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/dev
Re: [racket-dev] Can't get for-label to work in Scribble docs
#:use-sources is for the relatively rare case that (in the example below), db and bd/base both export identifiers from some some common, but undocumented place, like db/private/base (just making that up). It is an annotation that tells scribble that even though db does not re-export db/base, please go ahead and document it like it does. Something like that. Note that this is only appropriate if the exports *really* *are* the same identifier, but coming from some shared, undocumented place. If the bindings are actually different, then they should be documented twice (perhaps abstracted over in some way, but ultimately with two defprocs or whatever). (The easiest thing may be to make db re-export db/base, assuming it isn't already.)
