The check was incomplete in the case that both arguments to a binary
[ext]flonum function need to be checked and the second one was not an
[ext]flonum and also not a fixnum.
The problem was exposed by improved error checking
in the expander to detect references to exports of a module that
is not yet visited, and as triggered by the documentation for
`2htdp/planetcute'.
Includes a repair for floating-point `min' and `max' that affects all
x86 builds that use SSE arithmetic, leaving the (otherwise unused)
floating-point stack in a bad state, which might have affected
x87-using C/foreign libraries running alongside Racket.
wrap/handle-evt that receives multiple values must have a handler function with adequate arity.
struct.c:
change contract for wrap/handle-evt from (any/c -> any) to procedure?
thread.c:
adjust sync processing
sync.rktl:
add test for handle-evt, wrap-evt and prop:evt
Repair 73e07f576b added an item to a list without incrementing a
counter for the list length, which cause a different element of
the list to be dropped, which could mess up binding resolution in
arbitrarily bad ways.
(Ths bug falls into the "how did this not get exposed earlier?" bin,
although part of the answer is that it requires a combination of
module re-expansion and simplification of syntax objects in the
residual program.)

An extflonum is like a flonum, but with 80-bit precision and
not a number in the sense of `number?': only operations such as
`extfl+' work on extflonums, and only on platforms where extflonums
can be implemented by hardware without interefering with flonums
(i.e., on platforms where SSE instructions are used for
double-precision floats).
[Patch provided by Michael Filonenko and revised by Matthew.]
The compiler tracks information about bindings that are known to
hold extflonums, but the JIT does not yet exploit this information
to unbox them (except as intermediate results).
The code added to handle expressions mixed with definitions was
not introduced in the right way; fix it to be like macro-introduced
code.

The problem was in the handing of "lightweight continuations" used to
represent suspended computations, and in particular the handling
of continuation marks (such as the ones added by DrRacket's debugging
mode).
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to construct a simpler test case that
triggers the problem. I think the number of installed continuation marks
has to be just right, and there have to be some replacing marks, and
a lightweight continuaiton has to be captured at the right time
as a result of applying a previously captured continuation.

Merge to v5.3.2
It fixes a crash in the installation on OpenBSD. Racket reaches the
limits of the shell when it is compiled with a non-root user account.
Tested on OpenBSD-current amd64.

With either
configure --enable-pkgscope=installation
or
raco pkg config -i --set default-scope installation
the default scope of `raco pkg' actions can be changed from
user-specific to installation-wide.
We considered trying to guess when someone building Racket would prefer
installation-wide package scope by default. In particular, someone
building from source for in-place use seems likely to want
installation-wide scope by default. Then again, we don't want to
discourage in-place builds for Unix installations that are intended
for multiple users. So, no guessing for now.
Also, add a `--scope' argument to `raco pkg' commands, which is more in
line with other options, but keep `-i', etc., as shorthands.
The problems were with
* `sqrt' and `expt' on single-flonum complex numbers
* `asin' and `acos' on single-flonum arguments and complex results
* `atan' on mixtures of single-flonum and exact arguments
* `gcd' on mixtures of single-flonum and flonum arguments
For now, SGC must be used, but `configure' does not select it
automatically.
Also, support Cygwin (in addition to MSYS) as a build environment
when using MinGW compilers. Since I build in a Cygwin environment
(which seemed to be the easiest way to get MinGW-w64 gcc), I use
../configure --host=x86_64-w64-mingw32 --enable-sgc
The synchronization result of a log receiver is now a vector of four
values, instead of three, where the last one reports the name.
Also, an optional argument to `make-logger' provides a notification
callback for each event sent to the logger.
These changes enable more control over loggers and events. Suppose
that you have processes A and B, and you want all log events of A
to be visible to B, but not vice-versa. Furthermore, you want the
log events to appear at B in the right order: if A logs an event
before B, then A's event should arrive at a log receiver's before
B's. Now that a log receiver gets the name associated with the
original event, and now that the name can be re-sent in a
`log-receiver', it's possible to give A and B separate loggers and
send all of the events from A's logger to B's logger. Furthermore,
you can use the notification callback so that when an event is logged
in B, you can make sure that all available events from from A's
logger have been transferred to B's logger.
A phantom byte string is a small object that the memory
manager treats as an arbitrary-sized object, where the
size is specified when the phantom byte string is created
or or when size is changed via `set-phantom-bytes!'.
Keep track of whether any Racket-managed subprocesses are pending,
and use waitpid(0, ...) only if there is one, to better cooperate
with an embedding environment.
Also, add a chapter to the "Inside" manual to explain the issues.
As long as some thread is ready to run, and in case the threads
synchronize after very little work, keep checking threads for
at least one thread quantum.
Allowing them would require support for immutable fxvectors and
flvectors, interning, and more. Since the motivation for reader
support is to make marshaling and unmarshaling easier, allow
them only in `read' mode. Change printing to make then unquotable.
Also, describe the patch in the Windows build notes.
This change increases access to symbol fonts, though not in a
completely consistent and portable way. See the closed problem
report for more information, as well as a 24-NOV-2012 post
on the Racket mailing list:

This change makes document building --- and specially incremental
document building --- more scalable. The global duplicate-definition
check is handled by a database query, for example.
A bogus flag was propagated to closure information. This flag
was ignored by the validator, but not `zo-parse'. Make the validator
reject the bogus flag, too, while fixing the compiler.
This one is related to shifting type info when the closure is
made smaller due to lifting of something that used to be in
the closure. The `games/pousse/robot' module exposed the bug.
This is another old bug that could have caused validation failures
with flonums, but it showed up with fixnum tracking because fixnums
are more common (e.g., from `string-length').
There were really two bugs: information installed at the
wrong offet in one place, and a failure to detect that information
should be propagated in a different place. Fixing both avoids
a validation problem with `html/sgml-reader'.
Instead of keeping offsets in terms of `double's, keep it in
terms of bytes. This change is a step toward putting other kinds
of values on the flostack, such as extended-precision floats.
The last argument in a self-tail cal is treated specially and
not immediately stored on the "runstack". Space was formerly
allocated for it, though, and under certain circumstances
that space was not initialized. I think a combination of thread
timing, GC timing, and flonum boxing could potentially lead to a
crash (but constructing a test case is really difficult).
The scheme_generate_arith() function effectively had its own
copy of of the general scheme_generate_two_args() function that
predates the general one. Using scheme_generate_two_args()
instead simplifies and clarifies the code.
Track fixnum results in the same way as flonum results to enable
unboxing, if that turns out to be useful. The intent of the change,
though, is to support other types in the future, such as "extnums".
The output `raco decompile' no longer includes `#%in', `#%flonum',
etc., annotations, which are mostly obvious and difficult to
keep in sync with the implementation. A local-binding name now
reflects a known type, however.
The change includes a bug repair for he bytecode compiler that
is independent of the generalization (i.e., the new test case
triggered the old problem using flonums).
This appears to be an old bug where a check and use are misordered, so
I'm not sure why it hasn't caused more trouble before, but it depends
on a GC happening at the right time.

The JIT was pessimistically using 64-bit jumps for long branches
or any jump between code that is allocated at different times.
Normally, though, code allocation stays within the same 32-bit
range of the heap, so stick to 32-bit jumps until forced by
allocation addresses to use 64-bit jump targets.
In `(if (pair? x) E1 E2)', convert `(car x)' in E1 to
`(unsafe-car x)', and similarly for `(cdr x)'. Also,
`(begin (car x) (cdr x))' converts to `(begin (car x)
(unsafe-cdr x))' since `(car x)' implies a `pair?' test
on `x'.
