The `,h` REPL comma command fails with "No such file or directory"

What's expected: information about the car procedure will be printed to the REPL

How was Gerbil built and installed? Is it from some package manager? If homebuilt, what script or options did you use?

These answers likely aren't that relevant given @drewc's analysis in the Gerbil Support channel, but I will provide them for posterity.

Built from source using the standard ./configure && make -j4 && sudo make install. Here is some system information:

OS: Fedora Linux 43 (KDE Plasma Desktop Edition) x86_64
Kernel: Linux 6.17.7-300.fc43.x86_64
Shell: fish 4.2.0
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X (12) @ 4.65 GHz
