#926 fixed Some users have difficulty understanding the error that occurs when declarations are encountered in contexts where they aren't allowed Gary Byers Francois-Rene Rideau
Description

Dan Weinreb 2009-01-05 13:49:46 EST

(defun foo (a)
  (declare (fixnum a))
  (+ a a))

works fine.

(defmacro bad () '(declare (fixnum a)))
(defun foo (a) (bad) (+ a a))

gets a compile-time error, because macros are not allowed to expand into declarations.

However, the text of the error message is:

DECLARE not expected in (DECLARE (FIXNUM A)).

That's pretty unclear.

[NB: was ITA bug 52936]

#924 fixed Add monotonic clock support Francois-Rene Rideau
Description

Dan Weinreb 2008-12-05 10:58:05 EST It would be nice to have a way to get "monotonic" time from Linux, which is obtained by

clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &ts);

Priority: If you have to wash your dog, do that first.

NB: This was ITA bug 51985.

#923 fixed Binding a name in the CL package Francois-Rene Rideau
Description

Dan Weinreb 2008-11-24 13:41:13 EST Section 11.1.2.1.2 of the CL manual says that it's "undefined" what happens if you try to rebind a symbol in the CL package. SBCL complains if you try to do a macrolet on a CL symbol, such as "log" (which actually happened). I think it would be nice if this caused a compiler warning or error. (As you may know, I am hoping to eliminate the places where our CCL buildbot succeeds but the SBCL buildbot fails. Often SBCL explicitly outlaws things that are defined to be undefined by the satndard.)
