Branch: CURRENT, Version: 2.2.7nb3, Package name: guile22-2.2.7nb3, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

GUILE, GNU's Ubiquitous Intelligent Language for Extension, is a library
that implements the Scheme language plus various convenient facilities.
It's designed so that you can link it into an application or utility to
make it extensible. Our plan is to link this library into all GNU programs
that call for extensibility.

This is guile 2.2, the current stable version.

Log message:
guile22: update to 2.2.7.

Changes in 2.2.7 (since 2.2.6)

* New interfaces and functionality

** (texinfo plain-text) now exports '*line-width*' fluid

The new '*line-width*' fluid allows users to specify the width of a line
for the purposes of line wrapping.  See "texinfo plain-text" in the
manual.

* Bug fixes

** Reduce GC pressure when using bignums

Guile no longer installs a finalizer on each bignum (large integer) it
creates.  This significantly improves speed and memory usage on
applications that make heavy use of bignums, such as the compiler
itself.

** Fix peval bug that ignored excess arguments

In an expression like:

  ((lambda ()
     (define (add1 n)(+ 1 n))
     (add1 1 2)))

the compiler (specifically 'peval') would silently ignore the excess
argument to 'add1'.

** Respect thread local fluid defaults

Previously (fluid-ref (make-thread-local-fluid #t)) would return #f.
This is now fixed.

** Fix non-deterministic crash in 'finalization_thread_proc'
   (<https://bugs.gnu.org/37757>)

** texinfo properly renders @acronym in plain text
   (<https://bugs.gnu.org/37846>)

** 'scm_port_poll' honors "w" flags
   (<https://bugs.gnu.org/36709>)

** Do not record LDFLAGS in .pc file
   (<https://bugs.gnu.org/36339>)

** Fix Readline configure check for the sake of libedit

This fixes builds on macOS against the system-provided libedit.

** Fix build on platforms where the stack grows upwards
