The INSERTIONSORT crash, all three rulings (FIX.org 2026-09-20):
- (bytes s) allocates a writable copy through the allocator surface —
context or (bytes s a), StorageExhausted with retry, a registry note in
dev builds (flan_bytes_dup, lowered like vec-new). (bytes-view s) is the
old zero-cost reinterpret, renamed, read-only by convention; every
in-repo reader swept over to it. (string b) unchanged.
- String constants were already read-only on both backends at -O0; now
pinned — bytes-copy.flan rows on LLVM/-O0/--x86, and dies_segv rows
asserting the write-through-view trap on both backends.
- A dev build installs a SIGSEGV/SIGBUS handler by the same dev-only
constructor slot that arms the registry: one line naming the address and
the innermost frame, then the trap-hook park — stopped, not dead, the
daemon serving. No agent: message and re-raise. Release builds untouched.
Pinned by trap_park over dev-segv.flan.
The script is in tools/ rather than thrown away, because two lanes are
writing Flan in the old spelling right now and their files need the same
pass at merge.
It works on forms, not on text: a keyword becomes a dot only where it sits
in a field-label position inside a brace, so an enum member in value
position, a map key inside an EDN string and a type-position {K V} are all
left alone. :keys keeps its colon -- it names no field.
print-str, print-i64, print-f64, print-bytes, print-line and newline leave
the prelude. print and println are the whole printing surface now, and print
is the better call at every one of the sites that used them: it is the same
structural walk without the newline, so the no-newline case the family was
kept for is covered, and it takes the value as it is. The old print-i64
forced an explicit (i64 x) at every call site, because this language widens
nothing implicitly; that cast is gone from 127 places.
Dropping it moves one answer. hash-grid returns u64, and the cast through
the signed printer showed sand-headless's hash as -2851001042534928384.
print routes a u64 through flan_u64_to_bytes, so it now prints
15595743031174623232 — the same 64 bits, read as the unsigned number they
are. The pinned expectation follows the correction.
test-flan-dev.el and test_session.ml both reached for print-line as "a name
the prelude has"; they reach for rand-seed instead.
