Hello,

I could not bootstrap recent git versions of guile because of a problem in the Makefile.am in the meta subdirectory.

In that file you have several sed-substitutions, some of them avoiding the comma as seperator. But you may have missed one for "GUILE_LIBS".

Something like this seems to fix it:

diff -Naur guile.orig/meta/Makefile.am guile.new/meta/Makefile.am
