Actually, I found that thread ( https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2015-09/msg00390.html) and looked thrugh it (not as good as "looking through" it), but didn't make the connection that it was because of the boolean -- again. What threw me was how this time it seemed to just be a source block execute of the function, whereas before it was the actual code -- as if the problem in ob-scheme.el had escaped and hidden somewhere new. How does one make an official bug report and/or fix?
