2020-05-22gnu: guile-fibers: Add patch to fix resource leak.Caleb Ristvedt
guile-fibers@1.0.0 has a resource leak where run-fibers will only destroy one scheduler, but it creates as many as there are cpu cores by default (see https://github.com/wingo/fibers/issues/36). This causes the tests to fail on systems with many cores, and can cause guile to crash under certain circumstances. This fixes that resource leak. At present neither git master nor the latest release has fixed this yet. * gnu/packages/patches/guile-fibers-destroy-peer-schedulers.patch: New patch. * gnu/local.mk: Add it to the list of patches. * gnu/packages/guile-xyz.scm (guile-fibers): Use it.
