PS: More failures:

11) On Solaris 11, "make check" gives 1 test failure:

gmake[5]: Entering directory 
`/home/bruno/multibuild-1614/solaris11x8632/guile-2.0.3.152-c5f6c2/test-suite/standalone'
PASS: test-system-cmds

PASS: test-require-extension

       tail [+/-[n][l][r|f]] [file]
Incorrect output: expected "a;", but got ""
FAIL: test-guile-snarf

The 'tail' program in Solaris does not understand the modern syntax.

$ printf 'a\nb\nc\nd\ne\n' | tail -n +2
usage: tail [+/-[n][lbc][f]] [file]
       tail [+/-[n][l][r|f]] [file]
$ printf 'a\nb\nc\nd\ne\n' | tail -n 2
usage: tail [+/-[n][lbc][f]] [file]
       tail [+/-[n][l][r|f]] [file]
$ printf 'a\nb\nc\nd\ne\n' | sed 1d
b
c
d
e

So I would suggest to replace "tail -n +2" with "sed 1d".


12) Still on Solaris 11, "make check" gives more test failures:
