The macos-13 Intel runner no longer gets allocated, so the x86_64-macos release
job queues forever. Ship prebuilt binaries for x86_64-linux and aarch64-macos;
Intel Macs build from source. The install script now says so instead of 404ing
on a missing asset.
`joltc build` inlines the runtime (host/chez/rt.ss and everything it loads, the
seed, compile-eval, loader, ffi, the vendored irregex) into each app binary by
reading those files off disk. That works from a jolt checkout but not from the
installed self-contained binary, which has no source tree:
joltc build -m app.core
=> Exception in call-with-input-file: failed for host/chez/rt.ss: no such file
build-joltc now bakes the exact transitive closure of files the build inlines
into the binary as embedded resources (keyed by the path the `(load "…")` forms
use), and build.ss/dce.ss read runtime source through bld-source-string, which
takes the embedded copy when present and falls back to disk otherwise. So the
same joltc builds apps both from a checkout and standalone.
The release workflow now smoke-tests a self-contained build (compile a tiny app
from an isolated dir, run it) — this is exactly what shipped broken, so it now
gates the release. buildsmoke/shakesmoke/staticnativesmoke unchanged and green.
Build tooling only — no re-mint, no runtime change.
On a pushed v* tag, build the self-contained joltc (make joltc-release) for
x86_64-linux, x86_64-macos, and aarch64-macos, package each as a tar.gz plus a
SHA256, and attach them to the GitHub Release. Linux builds Chez from source like
tests.yml (the apt package lacks the kernel dev files build-joltc cc-links
against); macOS uses Homebrew chezscheme, which ships chez and the csv kernel
files. No notarization, matching dirge — macOS tarball users de-quarantine once
or install via a Homebrew tap.
The Homebrew tap update job is a separate follow-on; this covers building and
publishing the release assets.
