CHICKEN
(c)2008 The Chicken Team
(c)2000-2007 Felix L. Winkelmann
Version 3.3.4 - linux-unix-gnu-x86      [ manyargs dload ptables applyhook
hostpcre ]
SVN rev. 11356  compiled 2008-07-19 on debian (Linux)

Ivan, could you try this one too (precondition: chicken-setup srfi-34 ):

--- %< --- tg.scm ---
(require-extension srfi-34 ports)
(print (guard (ex (else 'success)) (call-with-input-string ")" read)))
--- %< ---

If this works too, I'll tear my chicken apart not my application.

thanks a lot

BTW: Does anybody know how the Debian packages are being built?  I
installed binary from ubuntu 8.04 and got some newer version than what
dpkg-buildpackage in my local copy produces (which claims Version:
3.2.0-0.2 for the very same thing as above).
