There has been a change how csm names objects and so csc (from the chicken core) wasn't able to find the module/link file. I apologize for breaking this - please try a more recent CHICKEN version, from git, if possible or by downloading a development snapshot that I will prepare in the next days, hopefully. Note that the "-main hello-main.scm" seems wrong, the program should build fine without it (also: -main wants a module name, not filename). thanks for reporting the problem. cheers, felix
