Subject: bug#11988: eval-case redefinition?
Date: Thu, 19 Jul 2012 15:22:44 +0200

This looks like a bug (v2.0.6).

I was cleaning up an old script which goes like this:

(define (eval-case ...)
  ...
  val)

(define var (eval-case ...))

This worked from the REPL, but when loading the file with (load "script"), var was always #<unspecified>. It turns out that (my) eval-case is never executed in this case.

So I look around to find that eval-case is something that has been replaced by eval-when and is now deprecated.

But no matter what eval-case is, it is bad that the redefinition is being ignored silently.

Regards,

	Daniel
