Well, it's even more hosed that you realize :-( When I do what you say, it reports that it can't find libguile-bessel.so in /usr/lib. When I copy libguile-bessel.so into /usr/lib, it reports that it can't find it in /usr/local/lib (the next path in my LD_LIBRARY_PATH). And so forth. When I manually set my LD_LIBRARY_PATH to just /usr/lib, it complains that it can't find libguile-bessel.so in /lib. It seems to be impossible to make it happy. Output looks like this:
guile> (load-extension "libguile-bessel.so" "init_bessel") standard input:1:1: In procedure dynamic-link in expression (load-extension "libguile-bessel.so" "init_bessel"): standard input:1:1: file: "libguile-bessel.so", message: "/lib/libguile-bessel.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" ABORT: (misc-error) Type "(backtrace)" to get more information or "(debug)" to enter the debugger.
