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.
Merge to v5.3.2
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.
