Jam gives the following error:

*** ERROR IN jazz:generate-symbol, "jazz\\kernel\\syntax\\expansion.scm"@49.15 -- Unbound variable: ##string->uninterned-symbol

Relaunching Jam from the command line, it skips all the previous messages during the compilation phase, tries to launch gsc.exe but returns the same error.

Fixed. I updated Jazz's Gambit submodule to the latest 4.7.5 which was the problem as ##string->uninterned-symbol is a recent addition to Gambit. Thanks for spotting that!

To be sure that everything runs smoothly, I suggest you delete your jazz directory and reclone it.

I tried rebuilding the Jedi repository and it gave the same error. Maybe you fixed the Jazz repository only?

Ok I'll try a full rebuild of jedi from scratch. On what platform are you? Do you define the $GAMBITDIR variable (if it is not defined, Jazz automatically uses it's own Gambit submodule to build Gambit)? Any other information about your setup that could be useful?

PS: If you want to chat, I usually hang out in Gambit's Gitter chatroom until Jazz has its own: https://gitter.im/feeley/gambit
