It looked as though that the readline in the Guile distribution is too old - no other readline installed on the system. I just installed the latest GNU readline into /usr/local/, and then Guile compiled.

Another dependency not mentioned in the INSTALL is that texi2pdf must be a recent version, otherwise conversion to PDF does not work - older version do not admit multiple files as argument or something.
