bug in scm_make_struct?


Hello!

In scm_make_struct, there is the following initialization sequence:

  SCM_SET_CELL_WORD_1 (handle, data);
  SCM_SET_CELL_WORD_0 (handle, (scm_bits_t) SCM_STRUCT_DATA (vtable) + scm_tc3_cons_gloc);
  scm_struct_init (handle, tail_elts, init);

I. e. the cell type (word 0) is set before the object is initialized.  The
initialization is enclosed within SCM_DEFER/ALLOW_INTS, but as I
understand it these are basically no-ops now.  Is this a bug and should it
be fixed?

Best regards
Dirk
