[Larceny-users] Syntax violations need &syntax

[Derick Eddington]

Per R6RS 5.5 "Syntax violations", the below exceptions must have a
condition with type &syntax.  (And probably shouldn't have &error
because of what R6RS says it's for.)

(The below is in ERR5RS mode, but the same issue seems to be happening
in R6RS mode, and I'm guessing ERR5RS mode wants to conform to R6RS in
this matter.)

Syntax violation: lambda

Invalid form

Form: (lambda ((oops)) 1)

Trace: 

  (lambda ((oops)) 1)

  (lambda () (lambda ((oops)) 1))

  ((lambda () (lambda ((oops)) 1)))

Syntax violation: define

Invalid form

Form: (define ((oops)) 1)

I didn't check other forms, and I'm guessing they need to be updated
also.

My need for this to conform is I have macros which rely on the forms
they expand to to detect syntax violations of some parts of my macros'
input, and my test programs (and fantasies of ultra meta programming)
need misuses of my macros to raise &syntax exceptions.
