The -I/usr/local/include is added for some other library that Guile depends on -- GMP or libgc or something else. For example on my system I have Guile installed into /opt/guile, and libgc and everything else in /usr, and I get: $ guile-config compile -pthread -I/opt/guile/include/guile/2.0 >> The problem this thread is about is if you have Guile 1.8 or previous >> eheaders installed in /usr. > > The directory /usr/local/include/ is added by the compiler.

Hopefully it won't be as "dangerous" when we live in a 2.0+-only world. I have been meaning to write an article or FAQ about /usr/local, and this is a good point.
