Hey all,

I'm trying to conditionally add a prelude to an egg.  It checks if X is
available by trying to link against it, and then it does the following:

(if with-x?
    (compile -prelude (define with-x #t) -s -O2 -d0 imlib2.scm -C 
-I/usr/X11R6/include -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lImlib2 -lX11 -lfreetype)
    (compile -prelude (define with-x #t) -s -O2 -d0 imlib2.scm -ffi-define 
X_DISPLAY_MISSING))

But this fails on the prelude with:
Syntax error: "(" unexpected

Adding a quote in front of the define doesn't work either as that expands
to (quote (define with-x #t))

How does this work, then?  (also, can I use cond-expand with this?  I'm not
sure how to add features cond-expand can check against)

Peter
