I think I fixed this in a reasonable way in master; or, reasonable given the historical mess that this all is anyway :) Your thoughts welcome here. If I did manage to fix that, then the remaining problems are the ones that I mention, plus reader options which I mentioned in another mail. I think probably reader options are the only significant issue. WDYT? Andy

Another problem is that in several places, we assume that if a top-level
form calls 'set-current-module', the forms that follow in the file will
now be expanded within that new module. This behavior is needed for
'define-module' to work properly, and it's also assumed in boot-9.scm,
psyntax-pp.scm, and maybe some other places.

Apparently the reason this doesn't work in Guile right now is that the
compiler currently reads and compiles one Scheme expression at a time,
then stitches them together on the Tree-IL level. Incidentally,
`primitive-load' works in the same way for the interpreter: it reads and
eval's single expressions in a loop. We could change this to have Guile
read the whole file and pass it all to the expander at once, within a
`begin'. This has some user-visible changes though:
* if evaluating an expression throws an error, primitive-load doesn't
read the following expressions and so doesn't detect syntax errors;
try a file like this:
(error "what")
)
With the interpreter (primitive-load) you will get the "what" error,
not a syntax error. (Yes the unclosed paren hurts my eyeballs but I
wanted to demonstrate a syntax error. Here's a matching paren:
")".)
* Procedural macros won't be able to use bindings defined previously
in the file unless they are eval-whenned. Of course this already
breaks in the compiler, but it succeeds in the interpreter.
Maybe now is a good time to do this though, in 2.2. Ludovic, Mark:
thoughts?

It would be possible to make the scope of make-bar be the whole file.
In theory it should work I guess, given this news entry from 2.0.1:
** `begin' expands macros in its body before other expressions
This enables support for programs like the following:
(begin
(define even?
(lambda (x)
(or (=3D x 0) (odd? (- x 1)))))
(define-syntax odd?
(syntax-rules ()
((odd? x) (not (even? x)))))
(even? 10))
And indeed if I try something at the REPL that uses `begin' I can't
reproduce this sort of error. Hmmmm. Maybe this rings a bell with
Mark.
In the mean-time I added a warning:
wingo@clucks:~/src/guile$ meta/guile --fresh-auto-compile /tmp/foo.scm
;;; note: auto-compilation is enabled, set GUILE_AUTO_COMPILE=3D0
;;; or pass the --no-auto-compile argument to disable.

OK the error is terrible, but at least the warning tells you why the
later error is terrible.
I haven't been able to backport it to 2.0 yet though. But maybe the
warning is useless if we can fix the issue.
