I am now wondering how that might have happened.
The "init_tests" function should not be run with "set -e" active.
Failing to test the results:

>  f=`\cd ${LIBGUILE_PATH}/../bin && pwd`
>  PATH=${f}:${PATH}

should just lead to a spurious ":" appended to the start of $PATH.
The following should be a little bit more rigorous:

>   f=`\cd ${LIBGUILE_PATH}/../bin 1>/dev/null && pwd` || {
>     f=`command -v guile | sed 's@/[^/]*$@@'`

>   }
>   case ":${PATH}:" in
>   *":${f}:"* ) : ;;
>   * ) PATH=${f}:${PATH} ;;

But "errexit" should still not be set.

For now, I've not included --with-libguile-path just because of time.
Please try the new pre-release and if you have troubles, I'll try
to get to the "with" thing.
