Re: [Chicken-users] Hash table mystery

Looks like I forgot to reply to the list.

Removing the 500 fixed the problem.  But it doesn't explain why it
works on the one machine.  Peter Bex confirmed the error correctly
occurs on multiple platforms (including x86-64 and sparc64).  If this
bothers you, I would try cleaning all remnants of Chicken off your
disk and reinstalling, possibly a newer version.
