Another Scheme, woohoo! :-) Applied!
I applied the patch, but I added a FIXME about the fact that it’s
“yogurt software” as Ricardo says: its “source” includes C files
generated by itself, which are obviously not source code. We try to
avoid that, but OTOH we already have the same problem for several
compilers, for instance MIT/GNU Scheme.
>From the README, previous versions were apparently bootstrapped using a
separate Scheme->C compiler. We could perhaps fix the problem by
building one of these older versions of Stalin, and using it to build
the latest one. Would you like to give it a try? (On this topic, don’t
miss <http://bootstrappable.org/>.)
Anyway, thanks for the patch!
Ludo’.
