	  of any other setting) [Thanks to Sven Hartrumpf]

	- runtime.c: removed C_alloc_in_heap, since the continuation can not be saved and will be invalid if GC should occur
	- compiler: rewriting rules for `string-append" and `substring" in unsafe mode; removed some unneeded variable
	  initialisations from compiler.scm

	- extras.scm: `write-string'
	- csi doesn't use the lolevel unit anymore

	- fixed bug in tcp.scm: partial writes to tcp-port didn't remove sent part
	- `##sys#thread-block-for-i/o!' for output (or mixed?) mode doesn't work properly (deactived,
	  does simple polling)

2003-05-21  flw  <flw@gurke>

	  [thanks to Joerg Wittenberger]
	- `define-constant' evaluates 2nd argument at compile time
	- fixed bug with mutable constants in `define-constant' forms
	- visiting handles `define-foreign-type' and `define-foreign-variable'

2003-03-23  njbeckford  <njbeckford@gurke>

	* runtime.c: Got rid of buffer overflow in C_get_environment_variable.

2003-03-22  njbeckford  <njbeckford@gurke>

	* Makefile.am:
	Undid change that made both MORE_LIBS and MORE_STATIC_LIBS be the same thing.

	* Makefile.am:
	Made both MORE_LIBS and MORE_STATIC_LIBS be the same thing.

	* Makefile.am:
	-all-static replaced by -static.  On Solaris, need libdl.so and
	libnsl.so since no libdl.a nor libnsl.a.

	* Makefile.am:
	"make doc" and "make testsuites" now use CHICKEN=../chicken

	* Makefile.am: Uses MORE_STATIC_LIBS instead of MORE_LIBS for
	lib[xxx_]chicken_la_LDFLAGS so that libtool does not add "-ldl"
	whenever something links with lib[xxx-]chicken.la.

	* Makefile.am, chicken-config.in, configure.in, runtime.c:
	configure.in: Made new variable SHLIBS which has -ldl or -ldld, which will only be used in non -all-static code.
	Makefile.am: Use SHLIBS to differentiate MORE_LIBS from MORE_STATIC_LIBS.
	runtime.c: Do not even try to use dl.h/dlfcn.h/dlopen/shlopen when in all-static mode.
	chicken-config.in, csc.in: Use MORE_STATIC_LIBS (%morestaticlibs%) in static mode.

2003-03-20  flw  <flw@gurke>

	* build.scm, csc.bat, doc/README, doc/README.txt, doc/manual.tex:

2003-03-16  flw  <flw@gurke>

	* build.scm, configure.in, csc.bat, doc/README, doc/README.txt, eval.scm, parameters.scm:
	- "so" was assumed as dynamically loadable file extension (should be "dll" under windows).
	- csc passed "/DPIC" to msvc, if compiling without `-static'.

2003-03-14  flw  <flw@gurke>

	* chicken-config.in, csc.bat, doc/manual.tex, library.scm:
	- Added `-static' option to csc and chicken-config. Both scripts misused `-shared'
	  as an indicator for linking with shared libs, but this option should be used
	  to generate dynamically loadable modules. Default is now to generate dynamically
	  linked executables. Use `-static' for generating statically linked binaries.
	- `[...]' is now allowed in strict-reader mode.

2003-03-12  flw  <flw@gurke>

	* Makefile.am: Changed "-static" libtool link option to "-all-static".

	-all-static: Always choose static libraries where possible, and try to
	create a completely statically linked executable.

	-static: This switch is similar to `-all-static', except that it
	applies to only the uninstalled Libtool libraries in the build
	tree. Where possible the static archive from these libraries is used,
	but the default linking mode is used for libraries which are already
	installed.

	-static was causing problems on some people's systems (well, Felix's)
	because the default linking mode is shared libraries.

2003-03-11  njbeckford  <njbeckford@gurke>

	* Makefile.am, chicken-config.in, csc.bat, testsuites/makefile.in:
	For static linking, always use an absolute form like
	/usr/local/lib/libchicken.a instead of -lchicken.

	* chicken-config.in:
	Condensed multiple lines of output into one.  Was screwing up
	SWIG configure script.

2003-03-10  njbeckford  <njbeckford@gurke>

	* compiler.scm: Fixed typo error (fix was by Felix).

	* Makefile.am, mingw/Makefile.in, testsuites/makefile.in:
	Some fixes to allow MinGW to work as intended.
	Especially, changing testsuites to rely on chicken-config for the
	compiling and linking options.

	* mingw/Makefile.in: Just install csc.bat, not csc

	* mingw/configure.sh:
	Needed to shift the installation location of the list of command line
	arguments to ../configure.

	* testsuites/makefile: Deprecated; use makefile.in

	* runtime.c:
	Changed the order of dload_2 functions so that dlopen/dlsym comes
	before LoadLibrary/GetProcAddress.  This means that for Cygwin,
	dlopen/dlsym will be used, and Cygwin's checking of LD_LIBRARY_PATH in
	addition to PATH will be used.

	* chicken-config.in:
	The -shared option needs to add -DPIC to compiler flags.

2003-03-09  njbeckford  <njbeckford@gurke>

	* c-backend.scm, chicken.h, csc.bat, makefile.vc, runtime.c:
	Changes to allow Microsoft Visual C++ to compile.  All functions in
	chicken.h had to have a dllimport/dllexport.  Got rid of C_dllexport
	as it was messing up the MSVC compile, but needs to be looked at
	further.  Makefile.vc updated to build both static and shared
	libraries.  The c-backend was updated so that C_xxx_toplevel was
	imported and exported properly on a MSVC build.

2003-03-08  flw  <flw@gurke>

	* Makefile.am, csc.bat, doc/README.CVS, doc/manual.tex, tcp.scm:
	- `-strict-reader' doesn't disable `[...]' list syntax.
	- Added `tcp-abandon-port' to tcp.scm.
	- Makefile.am: the effect USE_POSIX was sometimes reversed.
	- csc handles different shared-library file extensions.

2003-03-04  njbeckford  <njbeckford@gurke>

	* Makefile.am, configure.in:
	Fixed configure.in and Makefile.am to work with minimum autoconf 2.50, automake 1.4-p3 and libtool 1.3

	* runtime.c:
	Bug fix for handling of .dll or .so extension for cygwin/mingw.

	* Makefile.am: Bug fix for multiple compilation of chicken-setup.

	* Makefile.am, chicken-config.in, chicken.h, configure.in, mingw/INSTALL, mingw/Makefile.in, mingw/autogen.sh, mingw/configure.sh, mingw/installdllv.sh, mingw/mingw-cc.sh, mingw/mingw-cxx.sh, runtime.c, testsuites/makefile.in:
	Support for MinGW/Cygwin dynamic loading.  MinGW now uses the GNU
	autoconf et al. tools.

	- The scheduler does a `select()' with infinite timeout, when no other threads are ready or waiting for timeout.
	- The predicate returned by `condition-predicate' always returns #t or #f.
	- Added tcp to base system.
	- Windows batch files were not compiled with uses-declarations for all csi units.
	- Removed toplevel command `,x1' in csi.
	- Updated FAQ.html.
	- Added `-e[mbedded]' to chicken-config and csc.
	- `with-(input-from|output-to)-(port|string)' are continuation-safe [Thanks to Joerg Wittenberger and Tony Garnock-Jones].

	- The compiler could not be loaded into csi (missing variable `posix-is-available') [Thanks to Jonah Beckford].
	- Fixed some problems in the scheduler [Thanks to Joerg Wittenberger].
	- Fixed a bug in examples/makefile which made linking ctclsh fail [Thanks to Sven Hartrumpf].
	- Added a fast path in the `dynamic-wind' enabled version of `call-with-current-continuation' that

	- libchicken is now linked to csi as the last library.
	- Fixed problem(s) in makefile.vc.
	- Updated manual.
	- Compiler emits `main()' entry-point as needed.
	- libembedded-chicken isn't needed anymore.
	- Renamed `WINDOWS_GUI/_DLL' to `C_WINDOWS_...'.
	- `CHICKEN_...' procedures have an additional argument: the toplevel entry point procedure pointer.
	- `tex2page' is now distributed with all the other stuff.
	- Added `-setup -init' option to csi.
	- Alternative registry locations.
	- `##sys#thread-block-for-i/o!' doesn't block if other threads are ready or blocked.

	- Compiling csi doesn't need ##csi#run prelude anymore
	- Added TinyCLOS support for tagged pointers [Thanks to Jonah Beckford]
	- runtime.c: fixed bug in values_continuation() (stack-shift shifted one
	  too many); fixed uninit'd variable bug in C_gc().
	  Valgrind is incredible!
	- File-extension of dynamically loadable files is system dependent.
	- Removed serialization stuff. Has to be done better.
	- The srfi-37 unit doesn't need regex anymore.
	- Renamed Win32 libraries to match UNIX names.

	- definitions in highlevel-macros.scm used `implicit-identifier'
	  (but it's called now `datum->syntax-object')
	- added `scheme-chicken' scriopt interpreter
	- compiler knows how to compile scheme-chicken scripts
	- put scheduler into own library unit
	- removed optional argument from `set-signal-handler!'
	- heavily overhauled scheduler
	- posix: Ctrl-C now only resets primordial thread
	- applied fix to `system' which could cause a buffer overflow [Thanks to Joerg Wittenberger]

2002-12-19  psilord  <psilord@gurke>

	* test-infrastructure-hygienic.scm: + Whoo boy. I added lots o' stuff!
	+ Changed all of the test macros to insert a unique serial number into
		each result that can be made. There is a problem with this though,
		I need a top level define so this means you can only include this
		file ONCE in any given project. This means that you have to end up
		compiling your test program with a single compile. No separate
		compilation for each file. :( I'm thinking on how to solve this.
	+ Added the function output-html-simple. It outputs an evaluated result
		tree into html. This isn't done quite yet, but it is a large amount of
		work and I want it to be safe in the repository. It generates pretty
		decent looking html for the output, but I still have stuff to add.
	+ There is now a statistics function which you can call on a result tree
		to calculate all sorts of things about the evluated results, like
		how many things passed/failed, and damn near anything else you'd care to
		wonder about. This added around 70 calls to the API, but they are simple.
		Hmm... I might need to add "how many expectations are in this test case"
		kind of information though.... We'll see. Right now, there is plenty
		of computed statistics in there that are useful.

	- `read-line' should now handle CRLF transparently [Thanks to Joerg Wittenberger]
	- removed `extend-csi' and `extend-chicken' scripts
	- `let-optionals' and `define-entry-point' are now available under the hygienic macro system
	- removed `define-integrable', `define-datatype', `record-case' and `cases'
	- `user-post-analyis-pass'

2002-12-15  psilord  <psilord@gurke>

	* test-infrastructure-hygienic.scm:
	+ Changed the undocumented name of the statistics creator function.
	+ Added a global unique identifier creation function and subsequent
		invocation of it so I can have unique serial numbers for all results.
	+ I have not yet modified the result object construction code to use the
		serial numbers yet, since I need some questions resolved about how
		chicken interacts with seperate compilation and (include ...) with
		toplevel definitions.

	* testsuites/test-lolevel.scm, testsuites/test-r5rs.scm, testsuites/test-test-infrastructure.scm, testsuites/test-example.scm:
	+ Changed the use of output-style-human to output-style-human-simple.

	* test-infrastructure-hygienic.scm:
	+ Changed the name of the output-style-human API call to
		output-style-human-simple.
	+ Added *-warning? Which checks to see if a warning is active on any kind of
		a valid result object.
	+ Added a statistics system(and subsequent API to be detailed in the manual)
		which counts up all sorts of relavant information in a result tree and
		plances it into a statistics object which a large API has been built
		to manipulate. I'm not fully done with this yet, but it is such a large
		amount of detailed work, that I want to check it in to keep it safe. :)

	- we now use a more up-to-date version of Chez' portable
	  syntax-case implementation.
	- special compile-handling of `error' accepts now an optional
	  location as first argument.
	- Steve Elkins confirmed successfull build on OpenBSD.
	- library units syntax-case and modules are not compiled unsafe
	  (for libuchicken.*).
	- Compiler-option `-compress-literals' and equivalent declaration.
	- `(chicken-version)'.

2002-12-11  psilord  <psilord@gurke>

	* doc/manual.tex:
	+ Added side effect section, and a sample output of the output-style-human
		output generation function.

	* test-infrastructure-hygienic.scm:
	+ Added the macro (side-effect ...) which evaluates a set of arguments in
		a (begin ...) form and then returns the ignore-result result. This
		allows you to set up complicated situations for expectations where
		you might just want to secretly do a lot of work and then perform several
		expectations.

2002-12-09  psilord  <psilord@gurke>

	* doc/manual.tex:
	+ Added some documentation for some miscellaneous API calls into the

		document them. The names they originally had were not really meaningful.

	- fixed bug in `chicken-setup.scm': the access-check for the
	  REGISTRY file is now done on the directory.
	- srfi-1.scm: `proper-list?' is now an alias for `list?'
	- fixed mean bug in a literal-frame allocation handling: pointer
	  to nursery-allocated symbols, when re-interned and written into
	  a literal-frame circumvented the write-barrier.
	  [Thanks to Joerg Wittenberger for providing sample code]
	- all places where BSD-specific stuff were used, now check
	  for Open BSD, too. Additionally, RTLD_GLOBAL is defined as 0.
	  [Thanks to Steve Elkins]
	- removed unused definitions from `examples/mandelbrot.scm'.
	  [Thanks to Sven Hartrumpf]
	- the way `let' was handled in the evaluator limited the number
	  of bindings to 128 on non-x86 hardware.
	  [Thanks to Dorai Sitaram]

	* Makefile.am:
	+ Added the new test-infrastructure*.scm files to be installed with the
		loader file in the place where they get installed. :)

	* test-infrastructure-hygienic-local.scm: + Initial revision
	+ This file will contain any implementation specific testing infrastructure
		code you'd like (for example signal handling expectations) written in the
		hygienic R5RS macro style. Since it is local to the implementation,
		you may use implementation specific code in here.

	* test-infrastructure-hygienic.scm:
	+ The code in this file used to be in test-infrastructure.scm. Please
		look there from 1.16 to 1.1 to see the previous history. That file
		is now a simple implementation specific loader of the testing
		infrastructure code.
	+ The code was moved into this file to be as portable as possible and it
		shall stay as close to R5RS as possible. Any implementation specific
		mumbo jumbo you'd like to add to the testing infrastructure (example,
		signal handling expectations), you should add into the corresponding
		*-local.scm files. Also, the common/base R5RS hygienic macro definition
		in this file is considered cannon, and the lowlevel macro implementation
		should always follow what is in this file.
	+ Fixed a bug where printnl was using a non-R5RS function causing a
		non-portability problem.
	+ Fixed a bug where I typoed a function reference for
		(terminate-result-result-ref ...)

	* test-infrastructure-lowlevel-local.scm: + Initial revision
	+ This file contains implementation specific test infrastructure code
		written using low level macros.

	* test-infrastructure.scm:
	+ moved all code in here into test-infrastructure-hygienic.scm
	+ this file is now a simple implementation specific loader that loads either
		the hygienic or the low level macro version of the test common/base
		test-infrastructure code plus the test infrastructure code specific
		to this implementation.

	* test-infrastructure-lowlevel.scm: + Initial revision
	+ This file will contain the low level translation of the common/base
		hygienic test infrastructure macros.

2002-11-25  psilord  <psilord@gurke>

	* test-infrastructure.scm:
	+ Wrote a destructor object API to wrap the message passing interface to the
		destructor object. I did this to keep it more consistant with the
		rest of the test-infrastructure APIs, and also, it now allow sme more
		freedom is manipulating the destructor object API and keeping it backwards
		compatible. Eventually, I was to be able to specify nicely the
		queued function calls so debugging information is much cleaner, and maybe
		I want to play with the result type of the destructor object instead
		if having it be the ignore type all of the time.
	+ Recasted the activation of the destructor object to use the new interface.

	* doc/manual.tex:
	+ Fixed a typo that caused compilation to fail. *Please* check to make sure
		the manual compiles before commiting it. :)
	+ Added the documentation for the Destructor Object API.

		is supposed to be used.

	* doc/manual.tex: + Fixed some minor documentation points.

	* doc/manual.tex:
	+ Changed the toc and secnumdepth counters to be one greater so the fine
		structure detail of the manual is recorded into the table of contents.

2002-11-06  psilord  <psilord@gurke>

	* doc/manual.tex:
	+ Added the rest of the API descriptions for the test-infrastructure.scm
		file I've created for Chicken.
	+ TODO: still need to add examples of how it all works.

	* test-infrastructure.scm:
	+ Changed the warning API to reference warnings in the result objects
		as it is presented to the user cause the old way was stupid. Now
		it is much more consistant.
	+ Fixed up some comments to be more correct.
	+ Once I changed the warning API, I had to fix output-style-human to reflect
		the new API design. Much better in my opinion....

2002-11-04  psilord  <psilord@gurke>

	* doc/manual.tex:
	+ Added more documentation of the test-infrastructure.scm file. I'm
		still not done, but I Have completed the test-package, test-case, and
		all of the expectation macros(except the signal handling ones). I
		still need to explain the api to get at the returned results from
		the expectations, test cases, and test packages, in addition to
		code examples.

2002-10-31  psilord  <psilord@gurke>

	* doc/manual.tex:
	+ Fixed some math mode errors in the tinyclos section.
	+ Added first part of the test-infrastructure.scm documentation. I've
		done the test package and test case macro descriptions. Still need to
		do more.

	* test-infrastructure.scm:
	+ Added the (skip ...) macro which allows you to skip an expectation, test
		package or test case at your leisure.
	+ fixed up some comments.

2002-10-30  psilord  <psilord@gurke>

	* testsuites/test-r5rs.scm:
	+ Added the beginnings of chapter 6 from the R5RS handbook. Eventually,
		I'll add everything out of it. Mu goal is to implement as much of the
		R5RS spec as possible using my test infrastructure.

	* test-infrastructure.scm: + Added todo-result and gloss-result.
	+ todo-result is a message that says something needs to be done.
	+ gloss-result is strictly information to be processed by the user in
		any way desired. Usually it is a string that is printed out explaining
		some comments about something that is different than a warning.
	+ Changed the output-style-human function to output things in a better fashion.
	+ TODO Need to add the skip macro to be able to skip tests.

2002-10-29  psilord  <psilord@gurke>

	* test-infrastructure.scm: + Added some stuff to my copyright.
	+ Fixed the debugging output of the output-style-human function so when it
		encounters something it doesn't know how to parse, it emits the object
		itself in the debug message.

	* testsuites/test-r5rs.scm, testsuites/test-test-infrastructure.scm, testsuites/makefile, testsuites/test-example.scm, testsuites/test-lolevel.scm:
	+ fixed the test suite to use the new world order.

	* test-infrastructure.scm:
	+ Fixed the comments about test-cases and test-packages.
	+ Removed some defunct code.
	+ Moved some code around for better organization.

2002-10-28  flw  <flw@gurke>

	* Makefile.am, batch-driver.scm, build.scm, chicken-setup.scm, chicken.h, compiler.scm, configure.in, csc.bat, csi.scm, doc/README, doc/README.txt, doc/manual.tex, lolevel.scm, makefile.dj, makefile.vc, runtime.c, srfi-18.scm:
	- `current-time' (srfi-18.scm) returns something more useful
	- fixed bug in `make-executable-byte-vector' and `make-static-byte-vector':
	  the allocated block was of insufficient size [Thanks to Peter Keller]
	- simplified the use of preprocessor-symbols with respect to `c_defaults.h'
	- `-strict[-srfi-0]' didn't work correctly
	- `csc.bat' is generated from `csc.in'

2002-10-28  psilord  <psilord@gurke>

	* testsuites/test-example.scm: + Added some comments.

	* testsuites/makefile: + Added test-example.scm
	+ Commented out all tests except for the example test. I need to convert the
		other tests into the new world order of the testing infrastructure.

	* testsuites/test-example.scm: + initial revision
	+ A small example of the test-infrastructure code so people can have a
		starting point with which to write their own test using the system.

	* test-infrastructure.scm:
	+ Added a simple output-style for human readable output of the result tree.
	    The modus opreandi for handling a result tree is to write a recursive
	    analysis procedure to manipulate it in any way you desire. It can
	    print out output, or calculate percentage failure, or do any other
	    computation you desire.
	+ Some Experimetnal API calls exist for the output-style-human function.
	    I don't know what I'm going to do with those quite yet.
	+ Added the warning syntax to all of the expectations(except the exception
	    handling test-cases, I haven't even touched those yet).
	    XXX I think you need another type to specially handle the exception
	    results.
	+ Renamed the escape-result and associated APIs to a terminate result since
	    that is closer to what it actually means.
	+ Fixed a lot of busted API calls to deal with the various result types.
	+ Added a user invoked terminate function which you pass a continuation
	    escpe fucntion and a message that all gets transformed into a terminate
	    result type in the test package or test case you are in. You may pass
	    _any_ escape function in your lexical scope.
	+ Added an "ignore-result" type which is extremely transient, and not
	    creatable by a user directly. It is meant to capture the return values
	    of the destructor object during its use. These are stripped out of the
	    result trees and are unobservable by the user. Some of the internal
	    evaluation functions for the cases/packages and expectations
	    silently process the ignored values and well, ignore them. :)
	+ Added the warning syntax to the test case and test package macros.
	+ Fixed it test case/package macros to always activate the destructor object,
	    strip ignored results, and build termination events when they happen
	    automatically.
	+ Got rid of the true/false macros. I didn't like them.
	+ Whenever you use the destructor, it creates a temporary ignore-result
	    type which immediatly gets eaten when it comes time to process that
	    particular result tree. I decided it wasn't in my best interest to
	    use the #<unspecifed> system here.
	+ Added my copyright for this code, and a small paragraph explaining that
	    you can use it for whatever you desire, but my name stays attached to
	    it.

2002-10-26  psilord  <psilord@gurke>

	* test-infrastructure.scm:
	+ Totally revamped the escape procedure handling. Now, when an escape
		procedure is called, you get an "escape-result" in the
		returned tree.	I'm toying with being able to specify
		a format you return so that you can give back diagnostic
		messages. Already it automatically remembers the context you were
		in package/test-case wise, but not expectation-wise(it can't,
		in fact--well, it could... and maybe it will some day). I removed
		the destructor-result object I had before cause it was dumb and
		didn't model the real concept I wanted.
	+ Added a warning syntax so when you make a test case or a test package
		you can(optionally) have it embed a warning object into the
		returned result list to be parsed later by the tree analysis
		code the user writes.  I need to add this functionality to the
		test-package macro(though the underlying support code for that
		macro understands it already) and for all of the expectations. The
		use of this is to mention things like chicken expects this answer
		when the r5rs handbook says to give that answer. Stuff like that.
	+ Cleaned up some code I fat fingered because I usually write this stuff
		at 2am.
	+ This is still not ready for prime time, but it is comming very close.

2002-10-25  psilord  <psilord@gurke>

	* test-infrastructure.scm:
	+ fixed a bug in evaled-package-results-true where if it was passed the empty
	list it would return true.

	* test-infrastructure.scm:
	+ I've made serious changes to the internals of this code and until I update
		the test suites that use this code, they will all break. What I have
		currently appears to work and so I'm checking it in so I don't lose it
		through mistake or anything like that. The lowlevel macros definitely
		need to be redone, and I haven't attempted that yet. To felix, who
		is prolly reading this, don't do the conversion yet until I say cause
		a few things still need fixing.
	+ I've made it so that a test package can have multiple test cases or
		test-packages inside it ad infinitum.
	+ Now all tests return a huge tree that represents all of the results
		of the tests(along with the unevaluated expectations) and user
		supplied information for the tests. This causes a separation of
		output generation/analysis with the evaluation of the expectations.
		Now you can retarget output generation to be human readable or html
		or whatever you want.
	+ TODO: add new macro definitions for the "warning" style expectations,
		packages, and test cases.
	+ I added a ton of API calls to deal with the generated result tree and the
		various result types encapsulated in the tree. All of this, plus how
		to use everything needs documentation.

	- Invocation of `csc' in `chicken-setup' uses full path.
	- Foreign procedure accept pointer-like objects were pointers
	  were previously required (allows locatives as pointer arguments).
	- Type-check routines for foreign arguments generate better code.
	- Some locative-related routines are inlined.
	- An invalid foreign type could crash the compiler.
	- Result-size compuation for access to foreign data had some 32-bit
	  dependencies.

	- Renamed module `ffi' to `chicken-ffi'.

2002-10-06  psilord  <psilord@gurke>

	* testsuites/test-r5rs.scm:
	+ the test package macros return a vector of results, so I fixed up
	the use of the test package that had been implemented.
	+ Changed the include of the infrastructure to a require of it since it is now
	in the distribution proper.

2002-10-05  psilord  <psilord@gurke>

	* Makefile.am:
	+ Added test-infrastructure.scm into the install procedure so this file
		is placed into the correct install place like moremacros.scm is.
	+ You may now (require 'test-infrastructure) to gain the ability to use this
		feature, but you MUST be using hygienic macros.
	+ As soon as I figure out where to document it, I'll do it.
	+ I still need to have a lowlevel macro translation of this file so people
		can use it without r5rs macros. However, I've barely used lowlevel
		macros, so it is going to take a while to perform the port while I
		figure everything out.

		the various formats the manual.

	+ There is a lesson here, basically, only \includegraphics{name}
		*without* an extension, and provide .eps, .jpg, and .png versions of
		every single image you'd want to put into the manual. Yeah, Yeah,
		I know but there didn't seem to be a better way.

	* doc/chicken.eps, doc/chicken.jpg:
	Added these various formats of the chicken.png file for various stages of the
	manual build process.
