# Progress
## 2026-04-01 — Phase 1.1 started: Guile verified on FreeBSD amd64
Completed work:
- installed/confirmed `guile3-3.0.10`
- added a reusable verification harness:
- `tests/guile/run-phase1-verification.sh`
- `tests/guile/verify-phase1.scm`
- `tests/guile/modules/phase1/sample.scm`
- verified the following on `FreeBSD 15.0-STABLE` amd64:
- module loading
- deterministic output generation
- file I/O
- process handling with `primitive-fork`/`waitpid`
- loopback TCP sockets
- FFI calls into libc
- execution of Guix bootstrap-related code from `(guix build make-bootstrap)`
- wrote the results to `docs/reports/phase1-guile-freebsd.md`
Notable findings:
- `guile3` and `guile-3.0` are present, but there is no unversioned `guile` binary
- `system*` and `open-pipe*` currently segfault on this host (`exit 139`)
- despite that crash, the lower-level process primitives needed for further investigation do work
Current assessment:
- Phase 1.1 has a solid amd64 smoke-verification baseline
- Phase 1.1 is not fully complete yet because `i386` has not been checked and the subprocess crash needs investigation
- verification harness committed as `e380e88` (`Add FreeBSD Guile verification harness`)
Next recommended step:
1. investigate and isolate the `system*` / `open-pipe*` crash with a minimal reproducer
2. decide whether this requires a local Guile patch, a packaging fix, or Guix-side avoidance
3. once subprocess behavior is understood, continue with Phase 1.2 (minimal native build environment / GNU Hello)
