I just tried building the guile-master-20090610 snapshot on my Mac and  
it failed.

* r6rs-ports.c needs to include "libguile/r6rs-ports.x", like the  
other source files do, instead of "r6rs-ports.x"

* There needs to be a SCM_API declaration of scm_cells_allocated, or  
it won't be exported from the library, and the test programs won't  
link.  I put one in gc.h and it seems to work.  The library sources  
apparently get compiled with -fvisibility=hidden, and SCM_API  
overrides that.  (Which makes me wonder why it isn't blowing up for  
everyone on other systems...)

* At least in test-suite/standalone the preprocessor options telling  
the compiler where to find Guile's headers seem to come after the  
configure-time CPPFLAGS.  This doesn't work out well if I need the  
latter to tell Guile where GNU MP is installed, but there's also a  
version of Guile installed there too.

Here "-I/opt/local/include -I/Users/raeburn/dev/e/aae/g/hak/include"  
come from CPPFLAGS set at configure time (as per the configure script  
usage message), and ../guile-master-20090610 is the root of the  
sources relative to the root of the build tree.  Both GNU MP and Guile  
1.8.6 are installed in /opt/local; the "hak" tree is where I installed  
libunistring.  Using "-save-temps" and examining the resulting .i file  
shows that /opt/local/include/libguile.h is being included.
