Hello guile developers,
I personally don't know any OS that doesn't use EXIT_SUCCESS := 1, but

that I seem to be able to JIT compile a foreign function binding and call
it, at least once!
The rest is data that I generated using the rather awful hack at

I forgot to say that the dataflow list is what you probably guessed: an
