Yes, it has changed. I had originally developed my little game with Guile 1.8, on which it works (apart from the lockup problem I had hinted at, but that's totally unrelated and may be a bug in my code) and the problem only shows up when testing with 1.9. Ludovic was following me when I've tested at dinner; so the report should be reliable even if I had a couple of beers :-). > AFAIK no -- but do correct me if I'm wrong > -- and so for that reason, I don't think it's possible to change it -- > for backwards-compatibility reasons. So I think that it *should* be changed for backwards-compatibility reasons, but also because the behavior in 1.8 is clearly the right thing. > However the use case is important.

If you need a distilled test case, please tell me; it should be quite easy to build. > Greetings to you! It's really been a pleasure to meet you and Ludovic face to face.
