Anyway, I doubt that imposing such a limitation would adequately solve the problem here of chunked references in Racket 8, because I suspect that Racket 8 could split store references at arbitrary points in the string. I doubt that we can safely assume that the hash component of store references will be stored contiguously in *.zo files.
Mark and everyone,I wanted to spin off a subthread on guix-devel, to make you aware of another problem that we've run into with reference in .zo getting mangled: https://issues.guix.gnu.org/47180
Best, Jack
