Usually you would do:

./configure
make
sudo make install

(only installation should need sudo)

About your problem, hard to know but make sure the path where guile
was installed (I assume /usr/local) is in one of the files
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/ (mostly 100% sure /usr/local/lib will be there).
After that, try running "ldconfig" and then try running guile again.
