That seems strange. Can you try to add
(debug-set! stack 0)
to the file guile-1.6.0/scripts/snarf-check-and-output-texi, after the
'define-module' statement? That will disable the stack checking.
That might make Guile use a lot of memory, so you might want to be
careful.
The default stack room that Guile allows is 20000 somethings. On my
box, snarf-check-and-output-texi can run within 1500 somethings. It
would be strange when it would regularily need more than 20000 on AIX.
So I suspect there is a bug somewhere that leads to unbounded stack
growth. To be able run smaller tests, you need to finish the build
first, which you can do by touching guile.texi and
guile-procedures.texi in libguile/. You wont have online docs then,
but the guile executable should be able to run.
