Thanks again. I do have libglib2.0-dev installed here, so I don't think this is it. The complained file is `/glib/gnome/gobject/guile-support.h', line 27. One can see that it is indeed including something other than `glib.h', in this case, `glib/gmacros.h', which `gmacros.h' doesn't like and has a specific #if for this.
