I tried to use a function in a gexp along the lines of

(define* (f x) =E2=80=A6)

#~(begin
     (#$f x)
     =E2=80=A6)

This resulted in the following error:

ERROR: In procedure primitive-load:
In procedure scm_lreadr: =
/gnu/store/wcw0fii855axkiqfz05283rwl7nlrb3i-puzzledb-blogs-job-builder:1:2=
54: Unknown # object: #\<

where the referenced builder file contains

=E2=80=A6 (let ((backend (#<procedure read-secret (file)> =
"tools.token"))) =E2=80=A6

It seems to me that whatever code writes the builder file should already =
complain at the point
where it substitutes #<procedure read-secret (file)> =E2=80=94 is that =
possible?

I think =E2=80=98gexp->sexp=E2=80=99 should simply error out whenever an ob=
ject that
lacks a read syntax (like a procedure) is inserted in a gexp.

Ludo=E2=80=99.
