One would have to evaluate the costs associated with this. On one hand, this would slow down external packages. On the other hand, this may allow us to the `initial-exec' TLS access model (as noted by Andy on IRC), which can be a significant performance improvement. What I dislike is that it would make external packages second-class citizens, compared to code part of guile-core. Anyway, that's too late for 1.8 I suppose. Thanks, Ludovic. _______________________________________________ Guile-devel mailing list Guile-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-devel
