Could you post some of the warnings?

There's been an ongoing problem with guile on the alpha, and while I
don't know what it is, I suspect some of the bitfiddling we're doing
may not be being done portably.

We probably need to track this down before we release 1.6.0.

I may have access to an alpha I can debug and test on, if we come up
with any theories.
