Perhaps, I used not correct enough words to formulate my thoughts.
I cannot remember all details since I've done too many various
attempts to build my package and used various library versions for
various dependencies to find a workable configuration. Your pre-built
version of guile worked well by itself, though I still could not make my
package work with libguile. AFAIR, amongst things I tried to make it work,
was just replacing the libguile DLL built by me with your version. It
didn't work, too, probably due to the same GC issues in the Windows
guile build appeared in version 2.0 (guile-1.8 worked well), workaround
for which I found much later.

Thanks,
