Andy Wingo 2e26538d6a Replace libltdl with raw dlopen, dlsym
* NEWS: Update.
* am/bootstrap.am (SOURCES):
* module/Makefile.am (SOURCES): Add system/foreign-library.scm.
* configure.ac: Replace ltdl check with -ldl check.
* libguile/dynl.c: Rewrite to just expose core dlopen / dlsym / etc to a
  helper Scheme module.
  (scm_dynamic_link, scm_dynamic_pointer, scm_dynamic_function)
  (scm_dynamic_object_p, scm_dynamic_call): Rewrite in terms of (system
  foreign-library).
* libguile/extensions.c (load_extension): Avoid scm_dynamic_call.
* module/system/foreign-library.scm: New file.
* module/oop/goops.scm (<dynamic-object>): Hackily export
  <foreign-library> instead of a class here.
* doc/ref/api-foreign.texi (Foreign Function Interface): Rewrite to only
  document the new interfaces.  Eventually we will deprecate
  dynamic-link and friends.
* doc/ref/guile.texi (API Reference): Move Foreign Objects after Foreign
  Function Interface.  Seems there should be some closer relationship
  but this will do for now.
* doc/ref/tour.texi (Putting Extensions into Modules):
* doc/ref/libguile-parallel.texi (Parallel Installations): Update for
  rename of Modules and Extensions to Foreign Extensions.
* libguile/deprecated.h:
* libguile/deprecated.c (scm_dynamic_unlink): Deprecate.
* libguile/guile.c: Remove ltdl include.
* test-suite/tests/foreign.test: Update tests to use new API, and update
  error expectations.

This directory contains documentation on the Guile core.         -*-text-*-

The documentation consists of the following manuals.

- The Guile Tutorial (guile-tut.texi) contains a tutorial introduction
  to using Guile.

- The Guile Reference Manual (guile.texi) contains (or is intended to
  contain) reference documentation on all aspects of Guile.

- The Revised^5 Report on the Algorithmic Language Scheme (r5rs.texi).

Please be aware that this is all very much work in progress (apart
from the Revised^5 Report).  Bug reports and contributions are
welcome!

The `sources' directory includes some stuff relevant to the Guile
reference manual, and which may eventually be folded in to it.  It's
not immediately relevant, however, which is why it's not in this
directory.

The Revised^4 Report (r4rs.texi) is no longer in this distribution, as
it is completely superseded by the Revised^5 Report.  If you need to
consult R4RS, it is still widely available, for example at
http://www-swiss.ai.mit.edu/projects/info/SchemeDocs/r4rs/.
