Subject: Can't build with `--disable-regex`
Date: Fri, 25 Mar 2022 13:58:05 +0000

Hello there,

While trying to build a minimal version of Guile I ran into some errors which seem to stem from the `--disable-regex` flag.
I was building from the guile-3.0.8.tar.gz tarball on an updated amd64 Arch GNU/Linux system.
After extracting I ran the following commands:
```
./configure --disable-regex
make -j
```

After a short while I get the following error message:
```
