We are pleased to announce the release of GNU Guile 3.0.9! This releasefixes a number of bugs and adds several new features, among which:

• New bindings for POSIX functionality, including bindings for theat family of functions (openat, statat,etc.),a newspawnprocedure that wrapsposix\_spawnand that system* now uses, and the ability to pass flags such asO\_CLOEXEC to the pipe procedure.
• A newbytevector-sliceprocedure.
• Reduced memory consumption for the linker and assembler.

For full details, see theNEWSentry, and check out the download page.

Happy Guile hacking!
