Errors using Guile 2.0 vs. Guile 1.8

[Paul Smith <psmith@gnu.org>]

Hi all.

To test my GNU make Guile integration I was using guile 1.8 which is
what my distribution provided.  To test the newer Guile 2.x I downloaded
the Guile 2.0.3 release and built it and installed in an alternate
location (/opt/guile).  I compiled GNU make using that version, and all
the tests ultimately work BUT whenever I use (define ...) from within
GNU make I get these errors:

        $ cat g1.mk
        define show
        (define (show s)
          (display s)
          (newline))
        endef
        $(info define display)
        $(guile $(show))
        $(info after define)
        $(guile (show "HI"))
        all:;
        
        $ make -f g1.mk
        define display
        Backtrace:
        In ice-9/boot-9.scm:

        ERROR: In procedure scm-error:
        ERROR: Unknown object: #<variable 1cd0180 value: #<procedure 1cb95a0 at ice-9/eval.scm:378:13 (a)>>
        after define
        HI
        make: `all' is up to date.

I don't know what this means, or how to proceed with debugging.  The
same code works fine with Guile 1.8.

Did I make a mistake with my build or install of Guile 2.0.3?

Thoughts?
