[Larceny-users] Unable to start R6RS or R7RS

[Thomas Hintz]

Hello,

I'm attempting to run larceny on Arch Linux 64bit. R5RS appears to work
fine but with -r6rs, -r7rs, and -r7r6 I get an error on startup.

$ uname -r
4.1.4-1-ARCH

$ ./larceny.bin -r7rs

LARCENY_ROOT not set; using current directory
Larceny v0.98 "General Ripper" (Mar 7 2015 01:06:26,
precise:Linux:unified)

Error: unhandled condition:
Compound condition has these components:
#<record &error>
#<record &message>
message : "undefined global variable"
#<record &irritants>
irritants : (runtime-safety-checking)

A similar error appears for -r6rs and -r7r6.

I didn't do anything special, just extracted the pre-compiled binary
archive. Any idea what might be causing the problem?

Thanks and all the best,
Thomas Hintz

Sorry for the noise. It was a silly mistake. It is:

$ ./larceny -r7rs

not:

$ ./larceny.bin -r7rs
