Hello,

The following example from the Guile manual in subsection 7.5.9, fails
for me both on Guile master 2.1.3.94-1a1c3 and Guile 2.0.11 from Debian
Testing.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
     (use-modules (srfi srfi-10))

     (define-reader-ctor 'hash
       (lambda elems
         (let ((table (make-hash-table)))
           (for-each (lambda (elem)
                       (apply hash-set! table elem))
                     elems)
           table)))

     (define (animal->family animal)
       (hash-ref '#,(hash ("tiger" "cat")
                          ("lion"  "cat")
                          ("wolf"  "dog"))
                 animal))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The error is:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
While compiling expression:
ERROR: build-constant-store: unrecognized object #<hash-table 1c52c80 3/31>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Thanks,
