It looks like run-teaching-program hasn't been touched in quite a while.
To begin with, the "rewrite-module" function used to add code to print
out values of non-define exprs, but this is no longer necessary. In fact,
the only thing that it does now is to discard "provide" statements, and
even this may be unnecessary. I rewrote big chunks of this (short) file
to introduce defines, eliminate unnecessary functions, and add stepper-
skip-completely annotations to the requires associated with teachpacks.
Also, it appears that the 'rep' argument to expand-teaching-program
was entirely superfluous; I removed it from the argument list, and also
from the three places in the main tree (deinprogramm, lang, and the stepper)
that call this function.
Let me know of any problems seen with teachpack requires....
The bug happens with n-ary uses of arithmetic operations that
have constant arguments but couldn't be constant-folded ---
maybe due to a divide-by-zero.
Previously, sandbox creation used `gui?', which is the result of
`gui-available?' at the time that `racket/sandbox' is instanited.
This change makes sandbox behavior less sensitive tothe order in
which modules `require'd into a program are intiantiated.
The change depends on a new `sandbox-make-namespace' default
function for `sandbox-namespace-specs'. The new function uses
either `make-base-namespace' or `make-gui-namespace', depending
on whether the GUI library is available at that point.
A new `sandbox-gui-enabled' parameter can disable use of the
GUI library even if it is available.
The `gui?' binding is still exported for backward compatibility,
but it shouldn't be used anymore.
Using the functions on a port triggers renegotiation of the
connection, which s useful for cases such as a web server that
requires a certificate only for certain paths. This functionality
also allows better testing of the SSL library.
Mostly for amusement, including the contrast between
the benefits of closure compilation for a host interpreter
versus the benefits for a host compiler.
The old implementation could cause deadlock by blocking on a semaphore
while waiting for the original place to run a callback, but a master
GC might be needed (and the blocked place wouldn't get the signal).
Beside fixing that problem, a potential memory leak is fixed in
calling an ffi funcition and having a Racket->C unmarshaling fail.
Also, the GC marking routine for a `place' value didn't reference the
place's underlying `place_obj' value.
The eopl language is now racket-based rather than mzscheme-based. This
test-suite, which was originally distributed on the book's web-site has
been re-written in the new language. Changes include dropping all
drscheme-init.scm and top.scm files. Remaining files were renamed to
use the .rkt extension and edited to use the #lang syntax (instead of
modulue). Require and provide forms were changed to reflect racket's
syntax instead of mzscheme's (eg, only-in vs. only). Several
occurrences of one-armed ifs were changed to use when and unless. All
tests have been run successfully.
The bug is triggered by unsafe flonum operations, a
conversion that tries to make the arguments more unboxable,
and a `lambda' form within an argument to the unsafe
operation.

The `or' and `and' functions already worked correctly; this
fix is for `or' and `and' as applied directly to arguments, which
expands to the `racket/base' `or' and `and' forms.
Treat a "face" as a font description only if it has a comma,
otherwise go back to treating it as a family name.
This change fixes the problem of parsing "Times New Roman"
as "Times New, Roman".
The ActiveX part of MysterX is gone. The `ffi/com' re-imeplemtnation
provides only core COM support.
The "mysssink" DLL is still needed, and its source is still
in the tree, but it is downloaded in the same way as other
pre-built DLLs. The DLL no longer needs to be registered with
regsvr32.
The prohbition against `handle-evt' on `handle-evt' is as
document and as originally intended. I'm not sure why it
was allowed.
Existing programs that use `handle-evt' incorrectly
can break. I found and fixed one incorrect use and one
questionable use in the Racket tree (which is a small
minority of the uses of `handle-evt' in the tree).
Extend `define-cstruct' to support #:property specs, which causes
the constructor and C->Racket coercsions to wrap the pointer in
a structure instance with the specified properties. Of course,
the wrapper structure has a `prop:cpointer' property so that the
wrapper can be used transparently as a C pointer.
Add missing tests and documentation for the id`->list', `list->'id,
id`->list*', and `list*->'id bindings created by `define-cstruct'.
When an eventspace is created, its thread implicitly calls
`yield'. It now effectively loops with `yield' and while
catching continuation aborts.
