+ * posix.c (scm_waitpid): move the HAVE_WAITPID test out of the
+ procedure body, so that the procedure is left undefined if waitpid
+ is not available. previously in this case the procedure was
+ defined but would raise a system-error when called, which is
+ pointless. I intend to make the same change for other procedures
+ and deprecate SCM_SYSMISSING and scm_sysmissing.
