Running Guile 1.6.4 within Valgrind [1] actually shows quite a lot of suspicious things, most notably use of uninitialized values or conditional jumps that depend on uninitialized values in the GC code (eg. in `scm_gc_mark ()' IIRC). I haven't tried to dig into this so far due to lack of time and I don't have Valgrind right here so I can't give you more details. Did anyone try that before? Thanks, Ludovic.
