Hi,

perhaps you'd be able to provide me with a quick hint.

I've finally managed to compile my framework SLAYER

to run on Windows. I used the latest snapshot,

guile-2.0.9.98-36c40-dirty, and compiled it without threads

(I had to pass "ac_cv_func__set_invalid_parameter_handler=no"

to configure, because otherwise I had an error with msvcrt.dll)

I'm using unistring and iconv shipped with MinGW/MSYS.

The problem occurs when guile tries to compile a module.

I get the following error:

;;; compiling .\extra\common.scm

;;; compiling c:/guile2/share/guile/2.0\system\vm\frame.scm

Backtrace:

In unknown file:

?: 1 ;;; compiling system\vm\frame.scm

Exception thrown while printing backtrace:

ERROR: In procedure open_iconv_descriptors: invalid or unknown character encoding "utf8"

Do you know what could be the reason and solution?

Should I rebuild libiconv and then relink guile against it?

Would that work? Or is there any quick workaround?

Best regards,
