There are two problems here:
* You cannot have a bare '1' like that. It must instead be (const 1).
* The second operand to 'define' should just be the symbol, not
(toplevel <symbol>). The manual was incorrect about this; it is now
fixed in commit 4fd7ad6f85c0c83f4ba329c491838ade813beb8a.
So the example above should be: (begin (define x (const 1)))
More generally, to see what kind of syntax to pass to 'parse-tree-il',
use 'compile' to convert to tree-il and then 'unparse-tree-il', like
this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
scheme@(guile-user)> ,use (system base compile)
scheme@(guile-user)> ,use (language tree-il)
scheme@(guile-user)> (compile '(define x 1) #:from 'scheme #:to 'tree-il #:env
(current-module))
$1 = #<tree-il (define x (const 1))>
scheme@(guile-user)> (unparse-tree-il $1)
$2 = (define x (const 1))
scheme@(guile-user)> (parse-tree-il $2)
$3 = #<tree-il (define x (const 1))>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
