Although `--kernelobj` is the default, allow it to be specified
explicitly, in case it makes sense eventually to change the default.
original commit: 46813ea67dd115d87924422373ea684b75e2772c
Merging ".o" files to one "kernel.o" can be convenient for further
linking, but it requires running `ld` directly. Running `ld` directly
sometimes runs into a mismatch between the C compiler and the default
`ld`. It's better to use the more typical approach of collecting
objects into an archive.

InstallPrefix, since it didn't and can't play well with the
generated config.h. Instead removed InstallPrefix entirely so
it isn't an attractive hazzard.

controversial, unless I damaged something in the process of integrating
them with other recent changes. the user's guide and release notes
have been updated as well to reflect the changes of interest to end
users.
- the body of load-library is now wrapped in a $pass-time with
to show the time spent loading libraries separately from the time
spent in expand.
syntax.ss
- interpret now plays the pass-time game
interpret.ss
- added compile-time-value? predicate and
compile-time-value-value accessor
syntax.ss, primdata.ss,
8.ms, primvars.ms, root-experr*
- $pass-stats now returns accurrate stats for the currently timed
pass.
7.ss
- compile-whole-program and compile-whole-library now propagate
recompile info from the named wpo file to the object file
to support maybe-compile-program and maybe-compile-library in
the case where compile-whole-{program,library} overwrites the
original object file.
compile.ss,
7.ms, mat.ss, primvars.ms
- replaced the ancient and unusable bintar with one that creates
a useful tarball for binary installs
bintar
- generated Mf-install InstallBin (InstallLib, InstallMan) now
correctly indirects through InstallPrefix if the --installbin
(--installlib, --installman) configure flag is not present.
src/configure
- removed definition of generate-procedure-source-information
patch.ss
- guardian tconc cells are now allocated in generation 0 in the hope
that they can be released more quickly.
gc.c
- added ftype-guardian syntax: (ftype-guardian A) creates a new
guardian for ftype pointers of type A, the first base field (or
one of the first base fields in the case of unions) of which must
be a word-sized integer with native endianness representing a
reference count. ftype pointers are registered with and retrieved
from the guardian just like objects are registered with and
retrieved from any guardian. the difference is that the garbage
collector decrements the reference count before resurrecting an
ftype pointer and resurrects only those whose reference counts
become zero, i.e., are ready for deallocation.
ftype.ss, cp0.ss, cmacros.ss, cpnanopass.ss, prims.ss, primdata.ss,
gc.c,
4.ms, root-experr*
- fixed a bug in automatic recompilation handling of missing include
files specified with absolute pathnames or pathnames starting with
"./" or "..": was erroring out in file-modification-time with a
file-not-found or other exception rather than recompiling.
syntax.ss,
7.ms, root-experr*, patch*
- changed inline vector-for-each and string-for-each code to
put the last call to the procedure in tail position, as was
already done for the library definitions and for the inline
code for for-each.
cp0.ss,
5_4.ms, 5_6.ms
- the compiler now generates better inline code for the bytevector
procedure. instead of one byte memory write for each argument,
it writes up to 4 (32-bit machines) or 8 (64-bit machines) bytes
at a time, which almost always results in fewer instructions and
fewer writes.
cpnanopass.ss,
bytevector.ms
- packaged unchanging implicit reader arguments into a single record
to reduce the number of arguments.
read.ss
- recoded run-vector to handle zero-length vectors. it appears
we're not presently generating empty vectors (representing empty
groups), but the fasl format permits them.
7.ss
original commit: 7be1d190de7171f74a1ee71e348d3e6310392686
To support a more minimal build enviornment, offer the possibility of
building without "curses.h" and "libcurses" (which disables the
expeditor, although the expeditor's code is still included).

original commit: d4fdb3e0c88c40cceeeeeb52032068408edc7a6e
- Separate 64 and 32 bit MSIs
- Add wix bundle to combine MSIs into single installer
- Use basic wix UI
- Use merge modules to install vcredist package
- Add script to locate vcredist merge modules
- Fix installer status text by adding WixUI_ErrorProgressText ref
Merge modules seems to be the preferred method for installing the
redistributable package, which should decrease the package size and
speed up installation. This commit also addresses a bug where the
installer does not work when VC redistributable is not already
installed.
The 32 and 64 bit components were split into separate MSIs because
Windows Installer only officially supports packages containing a
single architecture. A package bundle is then created containing both
MSIs so only a single file needs to be distributed.
There seemed to be no trivial way to get the path to the vcredist
merge modules bundled with visual studio so I added a script
(locate-vcredist.bat) that handles this. It will need to be updated in
the future for compatibility with newer VS platform toolsets.
Some paths and name were changed, here's a summary:
32-bit install path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Chez Scheme 9.4.1\
64-bit install path: C:\Program Files\Chez Scheme 9.4.1\
installer file name: ChezScheme.exe
installer product name: Chez Scheme 9.4.1 x64
original commit: a8867749df27db41ebbafeb0dc914e5e6680cf9e
- added a cast to eliminate warnings in c/number.c
- fixed bug in Windows version of directory-separator-predicate in s/6.ss when path-* procedures are passed a path that is not a string.
- fixed bug in s/cp0.ss on Windows with $foreign-wchar?.
- fixed spelling of non-existent
original commit: dd1b741f7572cb0d5a6210c7c796aee7c4026040
This changes the configure script from unconditionally assigning CPPFLAGS,
CFLAGS, and LDFLAGS to the empty string, to only assigning them to the empty
string if they are unset.

machines with libraries and header files installed in alternate locations on
unix-like operating systems.
configure, workarea, checkin,
c/Mf-base, c/Mf-*
Added support for building from a directory that is not a git checkout in order
to support creating release source packages.
configure
original commit: 41d94b0793997e3b90c10d6d28aaa4e2d43857cc
and configure creates a config.h that sets the default scheme heap
path and scheme-script name based on the actual configuration.
configure, newrelease, workarea, checkin,
c/Mf-base, scheme.c, main.c,
Mf-install.in
- renamed the installed example directory from lib to examples.
Mf-install.in,
scheme.1.in
- added force option to gzip during man page install to prevent gzip from
asking for permission to overwrite existing man page files.
Mf-install.in
- removed ~/lib/csv%v/%m from the default scheme heap path on unix-like
systems. documented inclusion of %x\..\..\boot\%m in the Windows
default scheme heap path.
main.c,
use.stex
- added new configuration options: --installbin, --installlib,
--installschemename, --installpetitename, and --installscriptname.
configure
- updated the example library link to the nanopass framework.
CONTRIBUTING.md
- now cleaning up petite.1 and scheme.1 left behind by make install
Makefile-workarea.in, checkin
- now removing workarea after cleaning csug and release_notes so
Mf-stex (included from csug/Makefile and release_notes/Makefile)
doesn't complain trying to determine the machine type.
Makefile.in
- added installsh support for --ifdiff so the csug make file can use it
for the install target.
installsh,
csug/Makefile
- added instructions for building (cross-compiling) a boot file for
a supported machine type for which a boot file is not built by default.

line from the wpo file (if it has one) to the object file.
compile.ss,
7.ms
- stex is now a submodule. csug/Makefile and release_notes/Makefile
set and use the required Scheme and STEXLIB variables accordingly.
they default the machine type to a6le, but this can be overridden
and is by the generated top-level Makefile. the generated top-level
Makefile now has a new docs target that runs make in both csug and
release_notes, and an updated distclean target that cleans the same.
the annoying csug Makefile .fig.pdf rule redefinition is now gone.
copyright.stex and csug.stex now list May 2016 as the revision month
and date; this will have to be updated for future releases.
configure, makefiles/Makefile.in,
csug/Makefile, copyright.stex, csug.stex,

"check summary" message, whether invoked from the top-level directory
or from the workarea.
Makefile.in, Makefile-workarea.in
- configure now just uses cat to copy Makefile-workarea.in to $w/workarea,
since the file is presently the same regardless of the configuration.
