The GC problem was related to generational GC and the way constant
values are associated to JIT-generated code. See `retaining_data'.
The stack-overflow problems affects the JIT, module expansion,
and module invocation.
instead of copying the file into place. This makes Lion's Preview happier (specifically
it now recognizes the file as a revision of the old one and updates itself instead of
treating it as a new file and opening a second window)
This reverts commit 89581f5e21.
Putting "drscheme" last is useful because it avoids having two
places try to compile "drracket" and "drscheme" at the same time,
in which case the "drscheme" place gets stuck waiting on the
"drracket" place. Moving "drscheme" to the end is a hack, but
it improves the build time for 2-4 cores.
Previously, when trying to `enter!' into a module, an exception would
abort the whole thing, leaving the repl where it was. This behavior can
be very confusing:
> (module foo racket/base (define x 123) (error "bleh!"))
> (enter! 'foo)
bleh!
> x
reference to undefined identifier: x
> (enter! 'foo)
> x
123
Things are a little better with xrepl, since the prompt always indicates
the module that you're in. Still, it's unfortunate that a module with
an error is more likely to be something you'd want to debug -- and most
people are likely to miss the fact that entering a second time will work.
So make `enter!' catch exceptions when requiring the module, change the
namespace, and then re-raise the exception so the user sees it and is
left in the expected namespace.
Related to the already fixed PR 12114 and PR 12133, which motivated the
error, and a few additional typos of the same kind.
(Note that it uses the symbols, but that's how they'll render anyway.)
Since that requires `racket/draw', which requires libcairo, which is
missing on some build machines. It might be needed in the future, but
for now it's better to make it easier to add build machines.
Ports must be forced closed in the case of kill a place,
and the existing code takes care of that.
The Windows fix is especially needed for the new places port
handling, but it turns out that the console handlign was broken for
places anyway.
