I was working on packaging AutoGen for Guix (www.gnu.org/software/guix)
and came across a number of failing tests with `make check` (19 of 24 in
autoopts failed). The failure in most cases happened on line 126 of
"autoopts/test/defs", which attempts to cd to ${LIBGUILE_PATH}/../bin.
The failure occurs because the directory does not exist.
It looks like ag_macros.m4 needs to have a better method of determining
the value of LIBGUILE_PATH. The current method takes the path of the
last -L argument in LIBGUILE_LIBS. For me, this path points to the
libdir for libgc, which is not installed at the same --prefix as
libguile itself, so we can't go to ${libgc-prefix}/lib/../bin because
libgc doesn't install a bin directory.
Why not use LIBGUILE_PATH=`guile-config info libdir` instead?
