Read-time hash-table issue

[sionescu]

LOADing a fasl produced when compiling a file that contains just

(cl:defparameter *ht* #.(cl:make-hash-table))

yields this error:

Error in KERNEL::UNBOUND-SYMBOL-ERROR-HANDLER: the variable LISP::TABLE is unbound.

[Condition of type UNBOUND-VARIABLE]

Backtrace:

The error is reproducible on 19d and 19e-pre2

Fixed. There was a missing comma in the function that creates the load-form.

The fix will be available in the 2008-05 snapshot. If this is a critical bug for 19e, let us know. It's too late to get the fix into 19e, but we can supply a 19e patch.

[sionescu]

It's not critical, but I maintain the cmucl port for Gentoo and I'd like to have the patch applied in our ebuild.

[Raymond Toy]

Ok. I'll create the patch for 19e soon. It will be announced on the mailing lists when it's done.

[Raymond Toy]

Patch available now.

Look for http://common-lisp.net/project/cmucl/downloads/release/19e/patches/cmucl-19e-patch-001.tar.gz

As usual, this should be asdf-installable, but you can just download the tarfile, extract it, and use asdf to load the patch.
