Ugh, and I need to use a mobile plan, too.

Take the tip of the branch_release-1-8 branch in the Guile repository.
Thien-Thi Nguyen has kept that compilable even though no official

it's workable.  If that alone does not work, you may need to call
configure with --disable-error-on-warning to get it through.
