Subject: bug#34427: guile-bootstrap <at> 2.2 segfault?
Date: Tue, 18 Oct 2022 16:22:27 +0000

We've moved the bootstrap guile to 3.0 for riscv64 and haven't seen any problems. I think we can just close this one and we'll revisit it if someone else decides to use guile-2.2 for a bootstrap guile and runs into this issue.
