FOO you import, it doesn't actually load the library itself. This
makes
no difference for "built-in" libraries that are part of
libchicken.so,
but for matchable, srfi-4, srfi-1, foreigners and srfi-13 you will
have
to add a statement to load them as well.
You can either add (require-library srfi-13 srfi-1 srfi-4 matchable
foreigners)
to your code, or replace the import and require-library pair with one
(use ...) or one (require-extension ...) expression.
Hope this helps!
Well, it helps me to investigate further. But I don't think the
actual behavior I have observed quite matches your explanation. For
example, it appears that just about any FastCGI request will access
symbols defined in foreigners and matchable, yet I have not seen any
errors related to those extensions (or rather, I did at first, but
not after I added the declarations to import them).
Also, I notice that matchable and foreigners are eggs, while srfi-1,
-4, and -13 are ... umm, what are they? They are installed with the
core distribution, and listed in the Supported Language section of
the Manual
--but you say they should be treated as extensions?
