[Chicken-hackers] [PATCH] Add line number info for some forms introduced by reader

[Evan Hanson]

Hello hackers,

This patch adds entries to the line number database for the forms
introduced by the reader when it encounters "#$" (location), "#+"
(cond-expand), and the various quotation sigils. Previously, such forms
would either have no line number information (when occuring at the
toplevel), or the info would be inaccurate (when occuring inside another
form, it would use the line number of the outermost list).

You can see a before and after with the attached Scheme programs using
this command:

    csc -X x.scm -A a.scm

The before looks like this:

    (#f (quote toplevel))
    ("a.scm:3" (quote local))
    (#f (location toplevel))
    ("a.scm:8" (location local))
    (#f (cond-expand (toplevel foo) (else)))
    ("a.scm:13" (cond-expand (local foo) (else)))

And the after:

    ("a.scm:1" (quote toplevel))
    ("a.scm:4" (quote local))
    ("a.scm:6" (location toplevel))
    ("a.scm:9" (location local))
    ("a.scm:11" (cond-expand (toplevel foo) (else)))
    ("a.scm:14" (cond-expand (local foo) (else)))

Cheers,

Evan
