address@hidden @code{guile-2} SRFI-0 feature
address@hidden portability between 2.0 and older versions
+Likewise, testing the @code{guile-2} feature allows code to be portable
+between Guile 2.0 and previous versions of Guile.  For instance, it
+makes it possible to write code that accounts for Guile 2.0's compiler,
+yet be correctly interpreted on 1.8 and earlier versions:
+
address@hidden
+(cond-expand (guile-2 (eval-when (compile)
+                        ;; This must be evaluated at compile time.
+                        (fluid-set! current-reader my-reader)))

+                      ;; Earlier versions of Guile do not have a

+                      (fluid-set! current-reader my-reader)))

 It should be noted that @code{cond-expand} is separate from the
 @code{*features*} mechanism (@pxref{Feature Tracking}), feature
 symbols in one are unrelated to those in the other.
