So, the specific line on which the error occurred will always read
"in unknown file" because source data is a property of procedures. And,
when procedure A tail-calls procedure B, the backtrace may only
display the information of the procedure A. Right?
Thus, if I understand correctly, the closest I can get to getting source
info for this trivial case would be to change the script to
(symbol->string "HELLO")
#t
Adding a #t so it can't be tail-called. Then I get
In unknown file:
?: 2 [load-compiled/vm
"/home/Mike/.cache/guile/ccache/2.0-LE-4-2.0/home/Mike/tmp.scm.go"]
In /home/Mike/tmp.scm:
1: 1 [#<procedure 13fa550 ()>]
In unknown file:
?: 0 [symbol->string "STRING"]
ERROR: In procedure symbol->string:
