Re: CHICKEN 6 and win32 support

Maybe this strange behavior of C6pre on MSYS2 *  is a consequence of what
Felix said before: " Make sure you update to the newest CHICKEN 6 version
from git. We made
some user-visible changes to the process API from (chicken process) and
CRUNCH uses this API. "   from the CRUNCH testing mail branch?

PS. strange behavior of the C6pre on my windows laptop: 1) When I import my
separate module .so into my main.scm and compile just by csc6 main.scm,
resulted process 'main' silently ends after start. 2) I cannot build a
static module version, the compiler barks when it makes an object file of a
module. 3) But I can make a static one-file executable. 4) Which way slower
~10x runs on msys, against the linux version.
PPS. Windows OS is not super comfortable, side note.
