I pushed commit b0a702d7733e02cb68ea2331bd632e25a3127c75 to stable-2.0
which should, I hope, fix the specific issues raised in this bug report.
However, there are likely to be other places in guile where similar
assumptions are made. If you'd like to test current 'stable-2.0' on
LLP64, we can proceed.
Thanks!
Mark
