akbasic's src/ now calls libakstdlib 313 times and raw libc 7 -- 2.2%
bypassed, against 86.4% on the same tree before this. The submodule bump
669b2b3 -> 2b79aca needed no source change of its own: the release is
drop-in for what akbasic already used.
Seven of the eight sites the earlier port left on raw libc change their own
signature rather than swallowing an error, per andrew's ruling on
libakstdlib#38. word_is, the is_waiting_for pair, the scanner's is_at_end,
peek, peek_next and match_next_char, format.c's overflow, and sink_akgl's
scroll/newline/putchar_at/echo_line/edit_key chain all return an
akerr_ErrorContext * and hand the answer back through an out parameter.
is_waiting_for and is_waiting_for_any are a public header change; every
call site that used one as a term in a condition hoists it into a
statement first.
verb_compare is the eighth and stays on strcmp. bsearch(3) fixes the
comparator's signature, so there is no out parameter to report through --
which is what libakstdlib#38 concluded. It carries a comment saying so and
saying why the bypass is safe there.
Six snprintf sites stay raw because they want truncation as an answer
rather than an error, and aksl_snprintf cannot express that until
libakstdlib#34 hands the required length back. Each of the six says so at
the site. Two of them, in host.c, are a latent defect rather than a
decision: a host type name over 31 characters truncates silently and two
sharing a prefix then collide, where structtype.c refuses the same case.
DLOAD leaked a file descriptor. Its read loop sat inside an ATTEMPT and the
PASS in it returned past CLEANUP, so a scan error left the file open.
Hoisting the loop into its own helper to convert fgets fixes it.

`HITTEST`, `XBRICK` and `YBRICK` are gone -- about forty lines that divided
pixels by cell sizes to recover a grid index, tested the ball's leading edge
rather than its box, and could miss a brick clipped at the corner by seven
pixels' worth of ball. In their place: sixty `SOLID` rectangles registered as the
wall is built, `COLLISION 2, BRICKHIT`, and a fifteen-line handler.
The handler reads better than what it replaces because it asks rather than
derives. `RCOLLISION(1, 1)` is which brick -- the id is the array index plus one,
so nothing is looked up. Fields 2, 3 and 4 are the way out and how far, so the
ball is pushed exactly clear instead of being restored to a remembered `OX#`/`OY#`.
Field 7 is which axis to reverse, which `TESTCELL` in the other game computes by
hand from an overlap rectangle.
`MOVEBAL` loses its two brick calls and its position backup. `KILLBR` retires the
rectangle in the same breath as clearing the array element, so the next frame
cannot hit a brick that is no longer drawn.
**A latent defect in the target prescan had to be fixed first, and `RCOLLISION`
is the first name in the language to reach it.** `src/renumber.c` walks a line
character by character looking for `GOTO`, `GOSUB`, `COLLISION` and the rest, and
checked only the character *after* a match -- so `RCOLLISION(1, 1)` found
`COLLISION` at its second character, read the `(1,` that followed as a handler
line number, and refused the whole program with "branch to line 1, which the
program did not number", naming a line that contains no branch at all. It now
requires a word boundary on both sides. The comment there was already right that
the trailing check protects `GOTOX#`; nothing protected `XGOTO#`.
`tests/unnumbered.c` covers all three shapes and TODO.md section 6 item 42
records it.
The game runs ninety seconds headless with no error line and the attract mode
scores 1320, so bricks are being found and broken through the new path.
Chapter 17 is not updated yet -- that is the other half of section 6 item 39, and
it is a bigger edit than this one.

GOTO 100 in a script written without line numbers finds the hundredth line
and branches there. Silent, plausible and wrong: the test for it loops
forever printing the second line when the check is removed.
akbasic_runtime_check_targets() is a fourth prescan beside the label, DATA
and TYPE ones, run on every entry into MODE_RUN -- the earliest the check
can be made and the only place all four ways a program arrives pass
through. A target naming an empty line is still allowed, for the same
reason RENUMBER leaves one alone, and a fully numbered program is
unaffected, which is every program that existed before this.
It shares RENUMBER's walk rather than repeating it. renumber.c grows an
akbasic_TargetWalk -- a self pointer and a visit function -- and
rewrite_line() takes one. RENUMBER's visitor substitutes the number a line
moved to; the check's substitutes the number unchanged and raises. One
walk, so the two cannot disagree about what a branch target is.
The check points environment->lineno at the line being walked so the "? N :"
prefix names the offending line. The other three prescans do not and report
whichever line the loader stopped on; TODO.md section 5 item 64 records it.

A script written against LABEL and GOTO NAME never names a line number, so
the numbers it had to carry were decoration. akbasic_runtime_load(),
RUNSTREAM and DLOAD now file an unnumbered line one slot after the last one
filed; a numbered line is filed under its number and moves the cursor, so
the two mix. akbasic_runtime_file_line() is the one implementation of that
rule, so the three paths cannot drift.
The prompt is untouched. A line typed without a number is still direct mode
and still runs now -- that is the only thing separating program text from a
statement at a REPL, and it is why this is a loading feature.
What this replaces was silent data loss: an unnumbered line was filed under
the cursor unchanged, on top of the line before it. A blank line therefore
erased whatever preceded it, and RUNSTREAM did not skip blank lines the way
the other two paths did.
That moves one golden file, and the reference had the same defect.
language/arithmetic/integer.bas has four PRINT statements, an expectation
with three values, and a trailing blank line that erased 40 PRINT 4 - 2
before the program ran. The expectation is now 4 4 2 2.
tests/reference/README.md records the divergence and TODO.md section 5 item
63 says why.
akbasic_SourceLine grows a `numbered` flag so an assigned number can be told
from a written one. RENUMBER sets it on every line it touches; NEW, DELETE
and DLOAD clear it. hadlinenumber moves to akbasic_scanner_scan(), so it
always describes the line just scanned rather than only the REPL's.
Two lines carrying the same written number still keep the last, as they
always have. That is a separate decision.

Closes groups A, C, D, E, F, H and J of TODO.md section 4, plus RESTORE and
RENUMBER, and closes section 6 -- all seventeen reference defects. Seven of
those turned out to have been fixed or never ported and nobody had written it
down; the audit records the evidence for each.
Two of the seventeen were real. math_plus mutated its left operand when the
operand was mutable, so A# + 1 could modify A#; it was gated on FOR/NEXT
coverage because NEXT relied on the mutation, so tests/for_next.c came first
and NEXT now writes the counter back itself. And the binary operators summed
both numeric fields of their right operand, which no BASIC program can reach
-- that one needed a test written against the value API.
Writing the tests turned up eight defects nobody had listed. Seven are fixed:
IF A = 2 THEN was a parse error; only == worked
IF ... AND ... was a parse error, because a condition parsed as one relation
IF A = 1 OR B = 2 THEN was silently always false, and so was IF A THEN
EXIT before any NEXT restarted the program and exhausted the variable pool
READ never found a DATA line above it, and swallowed the lines between
PRINT 2 + 2 at the prompt was filed as program text instead of answering
a short read discarded its bytes, so COPY produced empty files
every verb taking an argument list said "peek() returned nil token!" on none
The eighth is not fixed and cannot be quietly: a FOR whose step overshoots
runs its body one extra time, and FOR I = 1 TO 1 runs it zero times. The two
errors cancel for a step of 1, which is why neither was noticed. Correcting
them changes the expected output of a checked-in acceptance file, and
tests/reference/README.md forbids editing one to suit this interpreter. It is
tests/for_semantics.c in AKBASIC_KNOWN_FAILING_TESTS, asserting the correct
contract, and TODO.md items 19 and 20.
Sprites are real libakgl actors with a renderfunc of their own, because
akgl_actor_render draws every sprite square and an actor has no per-axis
scale. Both are filed upstream. SPRSAV takes an image file, an SSHAPE handle
or a 63-element integer array -- a string here cannot hold a zero byte.
Verbs that need hardware that does not exist are refused by name with the
reason rather than faked: SYS, HEADER, COLLECT, BACKUP, BOOT, FILTER, and
DIRECTORY, which is refused for a missing libakstdlib wrapper filed upstream.
94 tests in the default build, 93 with SDL, 94 under ASan and UBSan, doxygen
clean. The Go acceptance corpus stayed green throughout.
