It looks at present like it is a problem with autoconf (which is where the ./configure script comes from, among other things), that is sort of inherited by guile. That particular bit of code changed quite a bit between guile 1.6.4 (which compiles fine on FreeBSD) and guile 1.8.1 (which as you know, has problems). So yes, your information was quite useful, although if guile had been tested to build on a BSD system before the 1.8 release, this probably wouldn't have come up. No, I am not a guile developer. There are much more thoroughly knowledgeable people than myself who do that sort of thing. I am just a regular old guile user. Thanks for letting me help you!
