Hello all,
The second release candidate for CHICKEN 5.2.0 is now available for
download:
https://code.call-cc.org/dev-snapshots/2020/02/16/chicken-5.2.0rc2.tar.gz
The sha256sum of that tarball is:
27d324b54aeda7163dbdb8a98d973752947e6f472336592435a788b3ba7daff2
The list of changes since 5.1.0 is available here (which is the
same as that of 5.2.0rc1):

This release candidate fixes a few build issues found during testing,
and a proper bug that was filed and considered important enough to make
it into the next release:
- A code generation issue was found by Sven Hartrumpf, which caused the
compiler to emit incorrect C code in certain very specific situation.
- The interpreter would crash on ",r" due to a declaration of flonum
arithmetic which was invalid.
- The build on Cygwin was broken due to an invalid macro declaration
of C_mkfifo().
- When compiling with an inline file for cross-module inlining, the
compiler would insert calls to external static functions (#1665).
Please give this new release candidate a try and report your findings
to the mailing list. Here's a suggested test procedure:
$ make PLATFORM=<platform> PREFIX=<directory> install check
$ <directory>/bin/chicken-install awful
If you can, please let us know the following information about the
environment on which you test the RC:
Operating system: (e.g., FreeBSD 10.1, Debian 8, Windows 7 mingw-msys)
Hardware platform: (e.g., x86, x86-64, PPC)
C Compiler: (e.g., GCC 4.9.2, clang 3.6)
Installation works?: yes or no
Tests work?: yes or no
