Yes, my hunch is that the build-guile-gtk-1.2 script's failing results in
some bad (maybe empty) configure variables. Obviously I need to add a
configure check for an error or empty result from calling build-guile-gtk.
What happens if you run on a command line:
build-guile-gtk-1.2 cflags
build-guile-gtk-1.2 libs
One likely hitch is that build-guile-gtk (and its -1.2 link) on my system
starts off like:
#! /bin/sh
# -*- scheme -*-
exec guile -s $0 $*
!#
That is, it uses the shell's $PATH to search for a binary called "guile"
with which to run itself. This probably finds your guile-1.4, which
doesn't have the (gtk-1.2 config) module that it keeps whining about.
If this is all true on your system, it suggests that a properly finkified
guile-gtk needs a patch to look for the right guile.
Or maybe it would work to try
ac_cv_path_bggtk="/sw/bin/guile-1.6 -s /sw/bin/build-guile-gtk-1.2"
in your configure.

Those are all definitely guile-gtk things, and
-lguilegtk-1.2 is conspicuous by its absence in the link line.
