Hello,
after cygwin, I tried again msys+mingw with the latest sources from GIT.
I compiled and installed libunistring (which is a new requirement), next I configured guile.
Finally I launched compilation but after a while it hangs because an error:

libtool: link: gcc -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Werror -g -O2 -o .libs/guile_filter_doc_snarfage.exe c-tokenize.o  /mingw/lib/libregex.dll.a /mingw/lib/libunistring.dll.a /mingw/lib/libiconv.dll.a /mingw/lib/libgmp.dll.a -lcrypt -lws2_32 /mingw/lib/libltdl.dll.a -L/mingw/lib
c-tokenize.o: In function `yyalloc':
C:/msys/1.0/home/Carlo/guile/libguile/<stdout>:2140: undefined reference to `_rpl_malloc'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [guile_filter_doc_snarfage.exe] Error 1

I temporally patched the generated Makefile by adding $(top_builddir)/lib/.libs/libgnu.a to LIBS variable and guile_filter_doc_snarfage.exe has been built successfully.
Evidently, it seems that guile_filter_doc_snarfage.exe needs your libgnu as dependecy, which is missing.

After fixing this little trouble, it continued to compile but it failed at the same point of older sources because the "splitted parameter" event.

Sincerely,

Carlo Bramini.
