![]() If a late will executor has pending will, then it needs to stay live until the enclosing place has terminated (and post-custodian callbacks are run). Otherwise, `ffi/unsafe/alloc` can lose values that it expects to finalize, and it reports an "internal error". The late will executor for `register-finalizer` from `ffi/unsafe` was kept live in traditional Racket, but only as an accident of custodian shutdown in a terminating place: the shutdown process skips threads, since that work is technically not necessary. Relying on that coincidence is asking for trouble, though, so implement retention more deliberately. |

This is the source code for the core of Racket. See "INSTALL.txt" for full information on building Racket.
To build the full Racket distribution from this repository, run make
in the top-level directory. To build minimal Racket, run make base
.
The rest of the Racket distribution source code is in other repositories, mostly under the Racket GitHub organization.
