[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi!

I created a mingw32 cross build for guile-2.0 some time ago, expecting
to need it real soon for "work" or for LilyPond.  Neither need
materialized until now; but it very soon.

Luckily, I found that Mike Gran did quite some work this spring on their
wip-mingw-guile-2.2 branch; so I packaged the latest snapshot.

Not sure if we want this in Guix -- but here it is.  I did a simple test
under wine and it seems to work.

Does that mean that Guile 2.2.5 will cross-build fine with
--target=i686-w64-mingw32?  (I thought this was already the case
actually.)

Ideally Guile fixes that are needed would go to ‘stable-2.2’, and then
Guix would simply package the corrected version.

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Well, if wip-mingw-guile-2.2 is merged; yes.  I'm not sure why that
hasn't happened yet, so there may be issues?

Sure!

Good question!  It could be that simply nobody took the time to look
into it.  If it can be chopped in small sizable chunks, I can take a
look and cherry-pick from it.  If you have suggestions or guidance,
that’s very welcome!

Regarding the package itself: I’m inclined to not include it in Guix
proper and instead work on applying the fixes in ‘stable-2.2’.

Is it OK for you?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

It's ~25 commits on top of a 6month old stable-2.2; it rebases without
problems on current stable-2.2.

Yes; I wanted to share this packaging.  So then this bug would/could
change to: merge wip-mingw-guile-2.2 or something.
