9dfa64ca7f Revert "(Reporting Bugs): Note need for subscription to"
This reverts commit e563095988, which is
appropriate because subscription is not now required for someone to
send a message to bug-guile@gnu.org.

091baf9edf Single stepping through code from Emacs
When you use GDS to evaluate Scheme code from Emacs, you can now use
`C-u' to indicate that you want to single step through that code. See
`Evaluating Scheme Code' in the manual for more details.

	* scheme-using.texi (Evaluating Scheme Code): Document use of
        `C-u' prefix with evaluation commands.

        * gds-scheme.el (gds-eval-region, gds-eval-expression)
        (gds-eval-defun, gds-eval-last-sexp): Support `C-u' prefix,
        meaning that user wants to single step through the code.

        * gds-client.scm (handle-nondebug-protocol): Add support for
        setting a trap on code that is about to be evaluated.

  things.

b6368dbbb9 Fixed a Scheme translation bug; cleaned compilation with GCC 4.
* module/language/scheme/translate.scm (trans-pair): In the `set!' case,
  when a procedure-with-setter is passed, call `trans:pair' with an
  actual pair.  This fixes a long-lasting bug which prevented compilation
  of `set!' statements with procedures-with-setter (this showed up when
  compiling `(system vm assemble)').

  (run-test-from-file): Renamed to `compile/run-test-from-file'.
  (run-vm-tests): Run each test using both the VM and the interpreter;
  compare the results.

  using `<ghil-inst?>'.

  dealing with simple vectors.

* src/vm_system.c (object-ref):  Added the type of OBJNUM.

  `SCM_VALIDATE_NUMBER' instead.

  to a u8vector, keep strings where it makes sense.
* module/system/vm/conv.scm (code->bytes):  Accordingly, convert strings to
  u8vectors when needed.
  (make-byte-decoder):  Accordingly too, when decoding instructions, return
  variable-length instructions' argument as strings except for `load-program'.
