Of course, the correct fix would be to help the GC be more reasonable, as it's currently somewhat broken: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.lisp.guile.devel/6699/focus=6832 You could also try setting `GUILE_MAX_SEGMENT_SIZE' to a smaller value, as suggested there: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.lisp.guile.devel/6699/focus=6836 > Please comment on the patch; it's in branch dev/hanwen on > sv.git.gnu.org The patch contains mostly unrelated indentation changes, can you fix that? Also, it gives me the impression that we've definitely lost control over the GC code, and we're adding yet another configuration variable to work around that. :-( Thanks, Ludovic.
