It appears that guile won't build with the default flags with gcc 4.6,
given -Werror and some new 4.6 warnings.
You can see the warnings in the build log here:
http://people.debian.org/~doko/tmp/werror/guile-1.8_1.8.8+1-2_lsid64.buildlog
The warnings look like this:
async.c: In function 'scm_i_queue_async_cell':
async.c:243:14: warning: variable 'count' set but not used
[-Wunused-but-set-variable]
And they can be suppressed like this:
-Wno-error=unused-but-set-variable and
-Wno-error=unused-but-set-parameter
Though that will only work with newer versions of gcc. Older versions
won't recognize the args and will reject them.
Here's the original report:
