I also tried building Guile 3.0.0 on Cygwin 3.1.x. The failure comes from trying to parse compiled .go files. The last time that I had this sort of problem, it was because the O_BINARY flag was dropped or missing when writing .go files, leading to CR+LF characters in the compiled files. And I diagnosed it by byte-comparing Linux-compiled .go files with Cygwin-compiled .go files, and by looking for CR+LF combinations in the compiled .go files. I don't know if that is what is happening here, but, I'll check that next time I have a chance. Thanks, Michael
