[Chicken-users] [ANN] CHICKEN 5.0.0 release candidate 1 available

[Jérémy Farnaud]

Hello, here is my report for the testing of this version of CHICKEN on
my Apple computer:

Operating system: macOS High Sierra (version 10.13.6)
Hardware platform: x86_64-apple-darwin17.7.0
C Compiler: Apple LLVM version 9.1.0 (clang-902.0.39.2)
Installation works?: yes
Tests work?: yes (see below)
Installation of eggs works?: yes

macOS and Xcode are up-to-date as of today. I use MacPorts but for this
test I put it somewhere inaccessible to verify that CHICKEN works
correctly without it.

Tests work only after installing CHICKEN. This is because the
environment variable DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH isn’t propagated to children
processes so the libchicken.dyld must be in a place where libraries are
looked for by default. This is a security measure added to macOS some
years ago.

Thanks for your hard work!
