   Thanks for you message.  Here's what I see when using ./check-guile
   --debug at the end:

   [tests: srfi-19, srfi-4, time]

looks like two main problem areas: time and uniform vectors.

the first area is a legendary debugging quagmire (unless you are an l10n
guru), so i propose we focus on the second area's characteristic: all
failures involve some kind of memory allocation.  this is not surprising
(although i can't remember why ;-)...

if you look how the fundamental type (SCM) is implemented (tags.h:63),
there are several cpp symbols that conditionalize it.  could you
summarize those and their values?  see top-level config.status, and also
try "gcc -E" to see what is really being passed to the compiler.

we need to check if the configuration values fulfill the constraints on
SCM implementation described in the comments in the {Architecture and
compiler properties} section of __scm.h, and base further debugging on
this.

at some point when we get back to the time problems, maybe i will have
read enough background to suggest a diagnostic.
