unmodified source

no deviations from the standard procedure for installing Guile

here's a snippet that demonstrates the behavior I'm wondering about:

    (use-modules (ice-9 threads))
    (use-modules (ice-9 format))
    (for-each
     (lambda (sym)
       (make-thread
        (lambda ()
          (display (format #f "Hey you: ~A~%" sym))
          )))
     (list 'bob 'sam))

Invoke the snippet with `guile -s snippet.scm'.  Note the total lack
of output.

Compare this to what happens if you comment out `(use-modules (ice-9
format))', thus presumably bringing in a different `format' procedure:
you see output as I'd expect, namely

    Hey you: bob
    Hey you: sam

Also compare this to what happens if you eliminate the call to
`make-thread', like this:

    (use-modules (ice-9 format))
    (for-each
     (lambda (sym)
       (display (format #f "Hey you: ~A~%" sym)))
     (list 'bob 'sam))

This, too, produces the output shown above.

The bug, or at least my confusion, is that the first version produces
no output.
