I've run this on a windows laptop under gdb with break points set on
main() and inner_main(). It executes ok until the call to
scm_with_guile() at line 456 of main.c.
When I try to step into scm_with_guile() four threads exit with code 3
and it's game over.
Reading the documentation* for Guile 3 it seems that guile should
initialize its global state and then call our inner_main() function. As
inner_main() is never reached it means the initialization of Guile is
crashing.
HTH,
Richard
