On OS X 10.7.2, Xcode 4.2 installs two system compilers
  /usr/bin/clang
  /usr/bin/gcc -> llvm-gcc-4.2
  /usr/bin/cc -> llvm-gcc-4.2
It is the latter, because that is one gets hold of without 'export CC=...'.

I get another error with gcc (GCC) 4.7.0 (from SVN, installed in /usr/local/bin/gcc):

PASS: test-asmobs
/bin/sh: line 1: 33654 Bus error: 10           srcdir="." builddir="." CHARSETALIASDIR="/usr/local/src/guile/gcc-4.7/guile-2.0.5/lib" GUILE_AUTO_COMPILE=0 "../../meta/uninstalled-env" ${dir}$tst

==================================
1 of 28 tests failed
Please report to bug-guile@gnu.org
==================================

So the f-sum error seems to have to do with llvm-gcc (and possibly clang).

In both cases, the failure is
  FAIL: test-ffi
