<mihi>new month, new logs :)

<Googulator>Probably my weirdest ever commit to any repository: https://github.com/Googulator/guix/commit/19c6f111f6c11e5f62922139321d55fd7b60f93f

<Googulator>A variable that's somehow null unless I print it beforehand.

<stikonas>heizenbug...

<stikonas>in the meantime, I've sent putenv stub to janneke for mes inclusion

<stikonas>that might help with building make 3.82

<mihi>Googulator, I doubt that (it is the weirdest commit you will ever make)

<mihi>and to be pedantic, that commit does not print any *variable* only the result of two function invocations (which, under normal circumstances, should be pure - i.e. without side effect and idempotent - though).

<mihi>let me guess, it is (getcwd) which is null? Although I have no idea how (newline) or (display) or any other code inside the let* should affect that...

<mihi>in case you want to track that down, my first idea would be to do the printing in an extra argument of "(let*", i.e. "(let* ((debugging (begin (display ...) (newline))) (headers ...". Not sure about guile, but I've heard of Schemes that compile lambdas that solely consist of a let differently.

<mihi>(would still be a bug of guile or that particular guile binary that runs the bootstrap, though)
