You may. Note the question marks: I wasn’t entirely certain about gnetlist:vams-get-package-attributes. gnetlist:get-command-line seems to work when invoked from a non-interactive back end (yielding argv[] as a list), but strangely yields #f when invoked interactively from a REPL. Or maybe that’s not the real issue.

gnetlist:get-package-attribute and gnetlist:get-calling-flags are no longer primitive, but are defined in gnetlist.scm. The primitives are now gnetlist:get-all-package-attributes and gnetlist:get-backend-arguments. There may be other changes (especially in 1.9) that I haven’t noticed.
