When using `compound-unit/infer` and similar, check the `link` clause
against each unit's static information for initialization dependencies.
Also, propagate dependency information in `define-compount-unit`.
Part of the clarification is duplicating information about numbers
and character in the documentation of `eqv?`. Since those two type
are the only special cases of `eqv?`, the duplication seems helpful
and managable.
be equal?-based contracts instead of = based contracts.
Before this change, the contract (or/c 1 2 +nan.0) was the same
contract as (or/c 1 2), because +nan.0 was the same contract as
the predicate (lambda (x) (= x +nan.0)), which is the same as
(lambda (x) #f). Now, +nan.0 and +nan.f are the only numbers
that are treated as equal?-based contracts, but this means that
(or/c 1 2 +nan.0) actually accepts +nan.0.
For GC purposes, if a "prefix" (a closure frame that caprues
top-level or module-level bindings) may refer to syntax objects
that are not used by any reachable closure, in which case the
syntax object can be dropped. This pruning of syntax objects
uses the infrastructure already in place to prune variables.
Syntax objects were not included in the original pruning
implementation, because they are unlikely to create
finalization cycles in the way that global-variable
references can. A syntax object can retain a namespace's
table of module imports, however, which can be substantial
and worth releasing of a closure is only held, say, for
a low-level finalization action.
The handling of `for-template` imports by `namespace-attach-module`
didn't match the docs. The actual handling was to refrain from
attaching instances of a phase-0 module if the instance was reachable
only through a `for-template`. The rationale had to do with such
modules instances being created only through instantiation of
phase-1 modules, and phase-1 module instances aren't attached;
it doesn't work well that way, though, when different modules
are attached with intervening `namespace-require`s on the target
namespace.
The change includes a documentation correction. Previously and still,
only modules at the same phase as the attached module (as opposed to
the same phase or less) are instantiated in the target namespace.

If a file or directory delete fails, try adjusting the file or directory
permissions to allow writes, then try deleting again. This process should
provide a more Unix-like experience and make programs behave more
consistently.
A new `current-force-delete-permissions` parameter provides access to
the raw native behavior.
Instead of introducing a subtype of `file-dependency` to imply one new
option, add a subtype that has an options table for easier
extensibility. (Thanks to Sam for pointing out that I shouldn't make
this mistake again.)
If module M in package P imports module N from package Q,
and if N has a `lazy-require` for a module in R that is
triggered during the compilation of M, then P doesn't really
depend on R; P depends on Q, and Q depends on R, and P
shoudn't necessarily know anything about Q. At the same time,
a change to the file in R means that M must be recompiled.
So, continue to track the compilation dependency, but mark
it as "indirect" so that the package-dependency checker can
ignore the dependency.
If "sqlite3.dll" is installed as a foreign library but shouldn't
be, then `raco setup` cannot simply deleet the file, because
starting `raco setup` opened the DLL. To avoid that problem,
rename the file to start with "raco-setup-delete-", then attempt to
delete the renamed file; the delete won't work, but the file
will be moved out of the way, and a future `raco setup` can
clean up.
The prefix "raco-setup-delete-" thus becomes special on Windows for
the directories that hold foreign libraries, shared files, and
man pages, because `raco setup` will try to delete any file
that starts with "raco-setup-delete-".
It's all very ugly, but I don't have a better idea for the
problems that I keep hitting.
Restore (but in a hopefully better way) a step that installs native
libraries before trying a full `raco setup`, since the libraries
may be needed for the setup proces --- especially on Windows.
