We are pleased to announce GNU Guile release 2.9.8. This is the eighth and possibly final pre-release of what will eventually become the 3.0 release series.
Compared to the previous prerelease (2.9.7), Guile 2.9.8 fixes a bug in libguile that caused writes to unmapped memory in some circumstances. This problem manifested itself as a failure of Guile to compile itself on some systems, notably Ubuntu 18.04 on x86-64. It also fixes a couple warnings related to SRFI-35.
make and make check verified to work on Ubuntu 18.08 / x86_64
