I've generally downloaded guile into separate directories and built from that directory, but in this environment(my main machine) I did have a fit of enthusiasm and did a complete installation of a much earlier version of guile (I think 1.9.11) all the way through to running make install. I then backed out using make uninstall.
Could this have left crud hanging around to cause the observed effects? I've been working around it using either a Virtual Machine environment or my laptop where I've never installed anything before 1.9.14. How could I check the $abs_top_builddir setting for you? As I've got a work-round please don't let this hold up the Guile release. Cheers, Ian
