Is there a better way?
Add the Guile libs to $LIBS and see if you can compile a test call to
scm_gc_malloc using AC_CHECK_FUNCS(scm_gc_malloc).
The general formula for autoconf is to do things directly. In your
case, you want to see if you can use scm_gc_malloc; therefore, the
way to go is to directly try to compile a call to said function.
