`serialize(io, handler)` in tests no longer throws an exception

2

The following code no longer throws on Julia 1.8 leading to a test failure: https://github.com/invenia/Memento.jl/blob/eccf67abe9b139e7ea893dd25f3ef6671c4de8b3/test/handlers.jl#L117-L123 I haven't looked into it in detail but it would be good to understand what...

Should `write` with an `END_TOKEN` call `finalize` on the stream to prevent memory leaks?

2

The desire here is to close the `TranscodingStream` without closing the underlying buffer. This is documented in https://juliaio.github.io/TranscodingStreams.jl/latest/examples/#Explicitly-finish-transcoding-by-writing-TOKEN_END-1 and says that you should write a `TOKEN_END` token to the stream....

Identical method signatures sometimes counted as different, leading to ambiguities

1

When loading an external copy of LinearAlgebra (as in the tests for https://github.com/JuliaLang/LinearAlgebra.jl) there are some new method ambiguities that arises, even if the external copy should have the exact...

`precompile` fails to cache code for calls that are not fully specialized (non-concrete signature)

2

In https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/46690, I want to deserialize an object on a precompile worker and it is quite important that this is fully precompiled since a lot of precompile workers are spawned...

WIP: refactor the code loading of packages

3

The current code for code loading is quite stateless (although there is currently a cache for parsed TOML files). Every time information about a package is looked up, the code...

Regression in broadcasting between blockarray and normal array

2

This used to work on 0.16.3: ```julia a = PseudoBlockArray(zeros(10 + 12, 10 + 12), [10, 12], [10, 12]) b = rand(22, 22) a .+= b .* 1.0 ``` It...
