I have installed guile 1.8.7, guile-doc 1.8.7, and libguile17 1.8.7, along with cygwin 1.7.7: $ cygcheck -c cygwin guile guile-doc libguile17 Cygwin Package Information Package Version Status cygwin 1.7.7-1 OK guile 1.8.7-1 OK guile-doc 1.8.7-1 OK libguile17 1.8.7-1 OK I have previously been able to install and start guile 1.8.2 without error, but when I attempt to start guile 1.8.7, it fails immediately with a Stack overflow error: $ guile -q --debug -- Backtrace: In unknown file: ?: 129* [#<procedure #f ()>] ?: 130* (let* ((file #)) (cond (# => #) (# => #))) ?: 131 [#<procedure #f (full)> "/usr/share/guile/1.8/ice-9/debug.scm"] ?: 132 [with-fluid* #<fluid 7> #f #<procedure #f ()>] ?: 133* [#<procedure #f ()>] ?: 134* [load-file #<primitive-procedure primitive-load> ...] ?: 135* [save-module-excursion #<procedure #f ()>] ?: 136 (let (# #) (dynamic-wind # thunk #)) ?: 137 [dynamic-wind #<procedure #f ()> #<procedure #f ()> #<procedure #f ()>] ?: 138* [#<procedure #f ()>] ?: 139* [primitive-load "/usr/share/guile/1.8/ice-9/debug.scm"] In /usr/share/guile/1.8/ice-9/debug.scm: 22: 140* (define-module (ice-9 debug) :export ...)

The same error occurs if guile is provided no command-line options. I can un-install version 1.8.7, install version 1.8.2, and start guile without error.
