<msiism>What is Guile's implementation language? <RhodiumToad>the parts of guile that aren't written in guile are in C <gjanssens>Hi, for gnucash on Windows we are currently pulling in guile 2.2.7. It has a few issues for which we carry local patches. <gjanssens>One in particular has to do with a missing mktime_internal implementation. <gjanssens>That reports the same issue on sparc solaris. <gjanssens>The bug suggests this is due to a change in gnulib. <gjanssens>We're more than three years later and the bug is still open. <gjanssens>Is this oversight or are there technical hurdles that prevent this from being fixed ? <janneke>gjanssens: you aren't using the 2.2.3-based wip-mingw-guile-2.2 (similar questions apply)? <wingo>sneek: later tell civodul i don't thing the conclusion about scm_call_n is right fwiw, or that it applies to anything beyond the case you are considering <wingo>i.e. unrelated to after-gc-hook <wingo>sneek: later tell civodul important to avoid jumping to conclusions imo to avoid effort misfocussing <gjanssens>janneke: no we're not using wip-mingw-guile-2.2 I wasn't even aware that was a thing... <gjanssens>that branch hasn't been touched since 2018. How much of it has been merged in the main development branch ? *janneke starts to doubt... <janneke>i remember that stable-2.2 didn't build for me and i started looking for patches, found wip-mingw-guile-2.2 <gjanssens>For gnucash we now have a working guile 2.2.7. But our patches are absolutely minimal and aimed at getting guile to work for us. <gjanssens>It's a lot of duplicated effort though to keep on maintaining this out of tree. <gjanssens>That's why I started looking around for other work in this area. And the first thing I ran into was the bug I linked to before. <civodul>wingo: i probably kind of jumped to the conclusions <civodul>that's how i interpreted the perf report ***terpri_ is now known as terpri
