I've tracked down the problem here.  I was using a package defintion
that I tweaked to include a native search path specification for
LD_LIBRARY_PATH in order for Guile's dynamic-link procedure to work
without an absolute path to the library.  Mark told me that I can
instead use LTDL_LIBRARY_PATH.  This works without segfaulting!
