Hello,
When building Debian version 2.0.13+1-5.1 one test fails making the
whole build to fail. The problem is in the file test-
suite/tests/statprof.test. According to that file it is known that
ITIMER_PROF is not implemented:
;; Throw `unresolved' upon ENOSYS. This is used to skip tests on
;; platforms such as GNU/Hurd where `ITIMER_PROF' is is currently
;; unimplemented.
(define-syntax-rule (when-implemented body ...)
(catch 'system-error
(lambda ()
body ...)
(lambda args
(let ((errno (system-error-errno args)))
(false-if-exception (statprof-stop))
(if (= errno ENOSYS)
(throw 'unresolved)
(apply throw args))))))
(pass-if-equal "return values"
'(42 77)
(call-with-values
(lambda ()
(with-output-to-port (%make-void-port "w")
(lambda ()
(with-statprof
(let loop ((i 10000))
(if (zero? i)
(values 42 77)
(loop (1- i))))))))
list))
However, when that test is run the following is reported:
Running statprof.test
ERROR: statprof.test: return values - arguments: ((system-error
"setitimer" "~A" ("Function not implemented") (1073741902)))
ERROR: statprof.test: statistical sample counts within expected range -
arguments: ((misc-error #f "~A" ("Can't reset profiler while profiler
is running.") #f))
ERROR: statprof.test: accurate call counting - arguments: ((misc-error
#f "~A" ("Can't reset profiler while profiler is running.") #f))
making that test (and package build) to fail.
An UNRESOLVED result would make that test to enable a successful
package build. Unfortunately I don't know anything about scheme code so
I cannot propose a patch to the Debian package maintainer. Maybe you
can help me?

Thanks!
