[racket] Racket 5.92

My students are having a hard time with Racket 5.92. Libraries are not
placed correctly, a lot of things do not compile any more, etc. A couple of
example will show what I mean.


Here are the compilation steps:

./configure --disable-futures --disable--places --prefix=/usr/local
make
make install

After a long time, compilation ends without a single warning. From the
shell, one can run racket without problem, but drracket complains about a
missing gracket. After copying gracket to /usr/local/lib, everything works.
I also made a copy of libmzgc.a and libracket3m.a to /usr/local/lib.

The next step is compiling the vim editor.  Here are the steps:

./configure  --enable-mzschemeinterp --prefix=/usr/local

make

These steps work flawlessly for racket 5.3.6, but produces the following
errors for 5.92:

usr/local/share/racket/collects"'   -o objects/window.o window.c
c-mods mzscheme_base.c ++lib scheme/base
make[1]: c-mods: Command not found

make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/rosa/src/vim/src'
make: ** [first] Error 2
~/src/vim$ ./configure --enable-pythoninterp --enable-mzschemeinterp
--prefix=/usr/local

I would appreciate if a member of this group could compile Vim for Racket
5.92 and tell me what my students did wrong.

By the way, following a suggestion of Matthew Flat, I also compiled Racket
with the --enable-libs option, but it does not make any difference.
