Replace the strong-ref stub with genuine reclamation. The referent is held through a weak-cons, so Chez's generational collector reclaims it once it is otherwise unreachable (the pair's car becomes the bwp object, and .get returns nil). A guardian registered on the referent makes the reference itself available the instant its referent is collected, which ReferenceQueue.poll surfaces as enqueued — the same hook clojure.core.cache's clear-soft-cache! drains. Chez has no softer-than-weak reference, so a SoftReference clears on unreachability rather than under memory pressure: a SoftCache evicts more eagerly than the JVM's but is now real GC eviction, not an unbounded strong cache. WeakReference gets the same (faithful) semantics. Added System/gc -> a full collect so callers (and the queue) can force the cycle. core.cache stays 1314/0/0 (its test values are immortal literals). Corpus row for System/gc; make test + shakesmoke green. |

Chez test harness
The correctness gate for jolt. Pure Chez (+ Clojure for the JVM oracle).
Correctness is judged against the JVM-sourced conformance spec; the spec itself
lives in test/conformance/ (see its SPEC.md). Run the whole gate with make test from the repo root.
The spec corpus
corpus.edn is the contract: ~2920 rows {:suite :label :expected :actual}, with
:expected sourced from reference JVM Clojure by test/conformance/regen-corpus.clj.
It is frozen (the canonical source) — add or change cases here, then re-source the
answers with regen-corpus.clj and re-certify with test/conformance/certify.clj.
The gate runners (host/chez/)
-
run-corpus.ss— runs every corpus case through the spine (read → analyze → IR → emit → eval, all on Chez), comparing each result by value-equality against the JVM:expected. Aknown-failallowlist covers cases jolt can't match because Chez has no JVM host (Java classes, arrays,BigDecimal, opaque host-object printers, …); the gate fails only on a NEW divergence or if the pass count drops below the floor.chez --script host/chez/run-corpus.ss JOLT_CORPUS_LIMIT=200 … # every-Nth stride, fast iteration JOLT_CHEZ_ZJ_FLOOR=N … # override the floor (default 2678) -
run-unit.ss— host-specific unit cases (test/chez/unit.edn) that aren't in the JVM-portable corpus: dot-forms, java statics, io, reader, walk, vars/namespaces, refs. Each:expris evaluated in-process and its printed value compared to a baked:expected(:throwsasserts a raise). -
selfcheck.sh— self-host fixpoint:bootstrap.ssrebuild byte-equals the checked-in seed (host/chez/seed/). -
smoke.sh— realbin/joltc -eCLI smoke.
Other Chez tests
values-test.ss— the value model (nil/truthiness/collections).make values.bench-chez.ss— compute bench through the pipeline (opt-in; not in the gate).
All runners assume chez on PATH.
