Was the ctrl-L what he said is the problem? I don't know what email reader you are using, but I saw this: > From: =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Germ=E1n?= Arias <ger...@xelalug.org> > Cc: Mark H Weaver <m...@netris.org>, > Ludovic =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Court=E8s?= <l...@gnu.org>, guile-user@gnu.org > > OK, I solved the problem.

I thought that was what he was having problems with. od -x 0000120 7463 7265 0a0a 0a0c ef0a bfbb 7461 6620 Sorry it's byte swapped, but the 0x0C is the ctrl-L and the strange character is 0xEF. How did that get there? You could imagine a compiler bug that only happens on strange computers when there is a strange character in a strange place in the input buffer. -- Keith
