(srfi :67 comparison-procedures) is not usable in Chez Scheme about chez-srfi HOT 5 CLOSED

Just wanted to let you know that I've seen this, but I haven't had time to take a look at it in detail. You may want to consider pinging @akeep and seeing if this is a known issue for him. Thanks for reporting the bug!

Sorry it took me a little while to look into this. It looks like the original compare-procedures code was attempting to play games with the SRFI 23 error call syntax to produce the R6RS error syntax. I'm not really sure why it was going to this effort, but it was resulting in an out-of-phase identifier.

I have a fix on my fork that simply removes the (broken) translator and instead calls the SRFI 23 error (which in turn just calls the r6rs error, so it is not like you're losing anything).

Anyway, I'll make a pull request for with this fix in it.

Merged pull request. @weinholt, could you please confirm that this pull request fixes things for you on your end as well? I'll close this issue once you confirm.

I can confirm that bae03a5 works as a fix.

The intention of the error trick is to get the "who" argument automatically from the define form. Chez is correct to reject this particular use, the identifier the macro creates is indeed used outside the context where it is valid. Fixing the macro is a bit too much effort to be worth it.

Closing as fixed. Many thanks @akeep !
