No idea.  I don't really use '\n' in Guile at all.  I'll try it...

Yeah.  Strangely enough if I manually run the tests in "guix environment -C -N", it works.  WTF?

See <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2017-06/msg00222.html>.

I think this was a false flag and it works without that substitution.  I'll try...

Not really.  I think Guile will continue to convert char* to Unicode UCS-4 (or similar) strings - so I don't see how that's ever going to change.  What this Rust test does is it explicitly uses a NON-Unicode character (as in 0xFF) to make sure that that works, too.

I'm not sure what the use case is for that...

See <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2017-06/msg00193.html>.

>Maybe add the guix-devel URL?

I'll add links to these archive entries as comments, and try without the "TODO" substitution and if all is well then I'll push to master (building takes ≈ 4 h per round, so no hurry).

Thanks for the review!
