This tiny example compiles without warnings or errors, yet the Slurs in the

first two measures seem to be ignored.

This is more a point of notation and doesn't directly address your question,

but I'm wondering, why not replace the tied eights with quarter-notes,

as in the third sequence below?

I find mixing ties and slurs in this example quite confusing.

(I'm using Simon's reformat of the code.)
