FWIW, it also works for me on sid (both amd64 and i386).

Hi Guys,
Eric Raymond and I poked around long enough to find the problem:
It's this:

I was told by the Guile folks that to make strings be and stay as ASCII strings,
I needed to do this. By backing out the setlocale call, all becomes well again
-- UNLESS -- you happen to use some locale that makes Guile strings go berserk.
Changing the behavior of Guile strings was a completely stupid idea.
If you change semantics, for God's sake, change the interface name.
So for the short term: remove the setlocale call and be certain to never
run autogen unless the environment variable "LC_ALL" is set to "C". :(
Maybe the fix is to do a getenv for LC_ALL and re-exec with the right value
if there is a problem?
