Did this patch ever actually get submitted to the mailing list by its author? https://github.com/sbcl/sbcl/pull/37

Hi There, I'm using sbcl on linux

Theseus
When I file has no .extension I get inconsistent results from #'pathname-type
0:39:36
Theseus
mostly I get nil, but sometimes I get :unspecific
0:42:38
Theseus
I had a bug in a situation without any debugging so had to write a lot of print statements to file to spot this
0:43:42
Theseus
at the command line I have been unable to reproduce the :unspecific result
0:48:08
Theseus
The :unspecific result happens in a modlisp command processor function.
0:50:06
Theseus
handling this is not a problem, I think, but :unspecific was unintuitive and completely unexpected
0:53:51
Theseus
I'd never have looked for it, ever!

Theseus
logging every variable at every change is a soul destroying desperate measure

I'll not treat cl's pathname dictionary so lightly in future
3:08:42
Theseus
looks like this does the trick, from CLHS, (pathname-type (namestring #P"/home/user/problemfile"))

So it seems that the patch never did get posted on the mailing list.

I have a weird issue with function return inference

(the problematic warning is in the annotation)

White_Flame
the :true in read-something is somehow leaking into the derived syntax-error return type?

This is SBCL 2.1.3.50-e8b780650, an implementation of ANSI Common Lisp.

phoe didn't have a problem in his 2.1.0

ACTION is doing another git pull
10:39:13
White_Flame
I did rebuild from github, not using a release
10:42:32
White_Flame
fresh git pull & rebuild, blow away ~/.cache/common-lisp, without .sbclrc, no slime, same style-warning
10:45:10
White_Flame
(although that likely has nothing to do with it)
