This includes: + - C function `Cyc_scm_call` which allows execution of arbitrary Scheme code, and returns objects that can be safely used by the caller. + - C function `Cyc_scm_call_no_gc`. This function imposes more restrictions but does not register with the Cyclone garbage collector so there is less overhead. + - Full code examples in the `examples/call-scm-from-c` directory in the Cyclone source tree. +- Added the `-COBJ` compiler flag to allow Cyclone to link an executable using objects that are generated by an external source such as a makefile.
