Hello, Andreas
I was able to compile guile on mingw32.
First, you should use the guile-core-1.8-20070429.tar.gz snapshot, or
use "cvs" to download the code in the 1.8 branch. The unstable branch is
not mingw32 compatible, at the moment.
Then, make sure you configured libtool, gmp and guile with
./configure --prefix=$(cd /mingw && pwd -W)
This will install the libraries at the right location in the MinGW
compiler tree and allow guile to find its data files at run-time.
Also, add to the guile configure line:
--without-libiconv-prefix --without-libintl-prefix
due to a problem in the MinGW gettext support.
Hope this helps,
Cesar
