Ok, the guile compilation, apart from being exceptionally slow and spouting the mentioned backtraces, is also an infinite loop in the build process on my windows/mingw.

I guess I adapt my Makefile to fully support cross compilation and make patches to guile load path initialization so that it becomes relative to the executable on windows (and osx too), since you can't rely on absolute paths there and on guile even being available. Will probably take a long while, since I got other stuff to do next week too.

When I got results with that, I'm gonna write again probably due to new problems.

Regards

Jan Schukat
