Dear GNU guile team: I compiled guile-2.0.11 yesterday, using the configure file in the distribution and the resulting makefile. I would like to report three things. Output of ./configure requested that I report the second one. I was able to compile and install guile. To the extent that I have tested it, it works fine. (Thanks!) Here are the problems. The attached .pdf file will walk you through them in detail, starting with describing my system. I would be happy to provide further information or output from the installation process, if you would like to have it. 1. readline 6.2 is installed. The configure program identified it as something prior to version 2.1, and output a warning. 2. Running "make check" produced an error report from "ports test: unicode byte-order marks". 3. The make process produced a file, unistr.h, that had to be manually adjusted in order to compile. Sincerely, Ed Green
