Unknown. Some of the tests fail to dlopen some modules:
  ERROR: In procedure dynamic-link:
  ERROR: file: "libguile-srfi-srfi-1-v-3", message: "can't open the module"
  FAIL: test-require-extension
  ...
  ERROR: In procedure dynamic-link:
  ERROR: file: "libtest-asmobs", message: "can't open the module"
  FAIL: test-asmobs

I haven't looked into why.

Attached.

Because, without it, PTHREAD_CFLAGS is set to:
  s["PTHREAD_CFLAGS"]="-D_REENTRANT -mthreads"
which is incorrect.
