Cool! I've been (very slowly!) catching up to the present with regards
to guile-devel.

Here's the deal.
1) Internal_stack_catch uses the the-last-stack fluid, which Guile no
longer has.
2) It is also a "lazy catch", meaning that it unwinds the dynamic
state to the catch, but doesn't unwind the stack. Guile doesn't
allow this any more. This may or may not have repercussions for
you.
Instead, in Guile 2.0, your best bet is to use
`call-with-error-handling'. See "Pre-Unwind Debugging" in the manual,
for more.

Andy
