Re: Some sort of bug??

[Chris.Bitmead@misys.com.au]

Version is slib2c3 I think, which I believe is the latest one. Which one
should I be using?

Anyway, It doesn't seem to be some deep dark slib problem. Is there
something going on here
with modules and namespaces I don't understand? The xscm:vicinity symbol
seems to be
defined, but gives an error when it is accessed in a loaded file. But I
think if I get that strvec.scm
file and cut and paste it into the REPL, it seems to be ok.

What version of SLIB are you using? I don't think the latest works
with Guile.
