I just tested hobbit and I must say I'm quite impressed (after having to port nontrivial software from SCM to Guile, I know the feeling). Here is a short wishlist - things I'd really like to see; not that I'm in any hurry: 1) Support for uniform array literals. These look like #i(1.0 2.0) etc., and would make compilation of my software MUCH easier, as I used these a lot. Even scm_eval_string("#i(1.0 2.0 3.0)") with the result stored in a variable would be great, as it'd be done only once. 2) not trying to compile ice-9 : ice-9 currently seems to be in state of flux and old version of ice-9 that arrives with hobbit breaks the new snapshots (perhaps configure --disable-ice-9 ?) 1) is the only feature I /really/ miss (and I need it to use hobbit properly). Apart from this, this compiler really works for the things I tested it with (*non* trivial programs). Miro -- I refuse to use .sig
