Hi Rowan, You have to have libguile installed (you do) with the development headers as well (you may not). I am forwarding this to the Minimalist GNU for Windows list. They have something that works on Windows. Unfortunately, Windows does not properly support fork() and guile uses some dynamic linking options that make its library problematic on Windows. Both of these issues make Windows support challenging. I don't use Windows myself. So, hopefully, someone on the MinGW list can help point you in the right direction. Sorry I could not be more helpful.
