[Chicken-announce] [ANN] CHICKEN 5.1.0 has been released

[Peter Bex]

Dear CHICKEN users,

We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of CHICKEN 5.1.0
at the following URL:
https://code.call-cc.org/releases/5.1.0/chicken-5.1.0.tar.gz

This tarball has the following SHA256 checksum:
5c1101a8d8faabfd500ad69101e0c7c8bd826c68970f89c270640470e7b84b4b

The most important change since 5.0.0 is a breaking one: Keywords are
now completely distinct from symbols.  Keywords are no longer accepted
as identifiers nor as type names, which may mean you'll need to
pipe-quote them or disable keyword syntax on your projects.

The other important new features are the new cond-expand, c-object and
object forms in .egg files.

The only change since the first release candidate is a small bug found
by John Cowan: srfi-4 did not export list->s64vector.  This bug was also
present in 5.0.0.

For a full list of the changes since 5.0.0, see the NEWS file:

Kind regards,
The CHICKEN Team
