Well I guess you could try to repro that hypothesis, if you had spare time and inclination... I believe the build code does try to avoid picking up anything (of Guile/libguile) already installed. But I think we're relying here on libtool and details of the underlying OS, so it wouldn't be a massive surprise to discover that it works perfectly on GNU/Linux, but not on NetBSD. Regards, Neil
