Re: [Scheme-reports] Comments on draft 6 Aaron W. Hsu 24 Feb 2012 23:41 UTC

Andy:

IMO, the following program:

 	(define t 1)
 	(define-syntax define-const
 	  (syntax-rules ()
 	    ((_ var val)
 	     (begin
 	       (define t val)
 	       (define (var) t)))))
 	(define-const foo 2)
 	t

Evaluated in any context, including the REPL and the top-level of any
library or of any internal lexical scope, should evaluate to the same thing,
and I believe this is the case with most implementations.  I consider this a
matter of giving proper hygienic guarantees in all levels that this should
evaluate to 1.
