John, Can you tell me what version of XCode you have installed? 5.0.2? version of gcc? (Xcode 5.1 gives you 4.2.1 with clang = clang-503.0.38). If you have not upgraded to XCode 5.1 (5B130a), then I suggest avoiding it. Aarrgh.... I just discovered that gdb is not available in Xcode with Mavericks.
This issue of hanging at guile-procedures.texi seems to be known, see: http://gnu-guile.7481.n7.nabble.com/guile-2-0-9-build-on-mingw-td16967.html This URL didn't give me any real insight, except that others have seen it even with 2.x of guile. I tried various permutations of dropping into the jhbuild shell at failure, rerunning .configure with "--enable-guile-debug" (that gave other compiler errors), configure with "--without-threads" (suggested by the URL above, no help); trying to fiddle with CFLAGS in the Makefile to change compiler options, even in the libguile subdir where guile is built -- no love. The compiler flags "-g -O' did not change its behavior. I also downloaded guile-2.0.9, and wedged it into gtk/source like so: bash-3.2$ ls -ld guile* lrwxr-xr-x 1 jaearick staff 11 Mar 16 19:27 guile-1.8.8 -> guile-2.0.9 drwxr-xr-x 45 jaearick staff 1530 Mar 16 19:40 guile-1.8.8.last drwxr-xr-x@ 49 jaearick staff 1666 Mar 16 19:41 guile-2.0.9 then "jhbuild build". It says "configure: error: GNU libunistring is required, please install it." So, I'm stuck for he moment. ----------------------------------- Jeff A.
