Someone has been kind enough to loan me an account on a 64-bit
machine:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/guile-core-1.8-20060328$ uname -a
Linux we 2.6.8-11-amd64-k8-smp #1 SMP Wed Jun 1 00:01:27 CEST 2005 x86_64 
GNU/Linux

But using the latest 1.8 snapshot, guile-core-1.8-20060328.tar.gz, I
can't reproduce the problem, either with straight `./configure; make'
or with `env CC="gcc -m64" ./configure; make'.

Is this because something got fixed in 1.8 CVS, or because I'm missing
some important ingredient of the builds which were reported as failed?

The gcc on this machine is:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/guile-core-1.8-20060328$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-13)

Any input much appreciated.
