Greetings.

I've built scsh from the repository =
(e28ab23af3d91e7807fc0f2c6666349549e26401) using distributed scheme48 =
v1.9.

The unit tests run successfully, but:

%  $T/scsh-bleeding-edge/bin/scsh=20
Welcome to scsh 0.7
Type ,? for help.
> date

assertion-violation: undefined variable [global]
                     date
                     scsh-user
1>=20

...whereas:

$T/scsh-hack/bin/scsh
Welcome to scsh 0.6.7 (R6RS)
Type ,? for help.
> date
'#{Procedure 12077 (date in scsh-level-0)}
>=20

Should I expect DATE to work without further declaration?

Secondly, is this the preferred place to report this, or would creating =
an issue on github be better?

And thirdly, I've got a patch for configure.ac, to support a =
--with-scheme48 option to ./configure -- would you (Roderic) be =
interested in that?

Best wishes,

Norman
