I have been building quite some versions of Guile the past week. There
re a couple of .go files that keep giving me problems wrt
nondeterminism:
web/server/http.go
(define *timer* (gettimeofday)) seemed suspect, but seems harmless.
rnrs/arithmetic/fixnums.go
make-implementation-restriction-violation seemed suspect, but commenting
it out does not seem to help.
After commenting out all of http.scm and fixnums.scm, yesterday I had 3
Guix builds on two machines (GuixSD and one Ubuntu+Guix) that were
bit-identical, but one build showed differences in
system/repl/commands.go
Apparently most of the time this file builds deterministicly, but some
times it does not!? Ideas?
In the mean time, one more obviously correct and trivial patch attatched
that removes a build time stamp.
Greetings,
Jan
