Yes. The with-timeout test script I sent a few emails ago passes if the latest 1.8 branch guile is compiled without threads.

They're taking a while to run, but so far all my other tests are also passing in mono-threaded guile 1.8.5 commit 9143131b2766d1e29e05d61b5021395b4c93a6bc Neil Jerram, July 11 >> I'm happy with this for now.
