Yorick Hardy b086926bf1 cyclone: update to cyclone-0.18
Announcement:

Released Cyclone Scheme 0.18

June 8th, 2020

With this release we proudly present Cyclone-Winds, the official
package manager for Cyclone Scheme. Cyclone-Winds contains a growing
list of packages and is an easy way to distribute programs and
libraries built using Cyclone. Please join me in thanking Arthur
Maciel for writing Cyclone-Winds and making this release possible!

The cyclone-winds binary is installed as part of our bootstrap
installation. Alternatively it can be built and installed separately
if you already have a copy of Cyclone installed, though version
0.18 or higher is required.

Please visit the Cyclone-Winds site for more information.

Features

  * Added the (cyclone foreign) library to make it easier
    to integrate with C code using the FFI.
  * Arthur Maciel improved how icyc handles the "-p" flag,
    to now read/evaluate all expressions passed.

Bug Fixes

  * Added a void type and a new supporting function (void).
    A void object is also now returned in situations where
    the return value is undefined: for-each and if expressions
    with out an else clause.
  * Allow open-binary-input-file and open-binary-output-file
    to be accessible via the REPL.
  * Fix bytevector? predicate which was accidentally aliased
    to vector?.
  * Fix list-copy to return a non-list object instead of raising
    an error, per R7RS.
  * Fixed eqv? to use R7RS semantics to ensure equality of
    different instances of the same numeric value. The function
    was previously just an alias of eq?.
  * Support two-argument version of atan.
  * Support start and end arguments to write-string.
  * Updated the string comparison procedures (EG: string=?) to
    support more than two arguments.
