I think this is > wrong because vector-push-extend is supposed to be used. but if the supplied string is not actually expandable, an error should be signaled, as is clearly indicated by the writeup in issue 365. please revert the patch. the problem here is that implementations are not required to create non-expandable strings, so there is certain latitude here. I suggest that we condition the results on the implementations, assuming that the "default" implementation would create a non-expandable string and thus signal an error. -- Sam Steingold (http://www.podval.org/~sds) running RedHat7.2 GNU/Linux <http://www.camera.org> <http://www.iris.org.il> <http://www.memri.org/> <http://www.mideasttruth.com/> <http://www.palestine-central.com/links.html> Ph.D. stands for "Phony Doctor" - Isaak Asimov, Ph.D. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf
