Hello, I'm maintaining guile package in Gentoo, and since version 1.8.6
the tests are failing.

Here's the log for version 1.8.7:

The same problem has happened with 1.8.6:

We've fixed a similar problem in Guile's git repository:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=guile.git;a=commitdiff;h=5b98517a652ea51cbb0fd03e87a50c0b3add9707.

However that is in our master branch, not the 1.8.x branch; I will apply
this change to the 1.8.x branch after first checking that I see the same
problem with libltdl 2.2.6b, and that the patch fixes it.

Regards,
        Neil

Yes, it needs to be backported to 1.8 (I’ve been too lazy to switch
branches).

For the record, this ltdl change was documented in the Libtool 2.2.6b
announcement:

Thanks,

...so I've pushed to branch_release-1-8 now:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=guile.git;a=commit;h=a0aa1e5b69d6ef0311aeea8e4b9a94eae18a1aaf.
