I remembered having this problem so I quickly checked the mailing list
archives....here is what worked for me:

" This is due to some odd interaction between guil-1.2 and slib..
   try this:
   append the following two lines to lthe r4rs.scm file in the guile-1.2
   dir:
   (define (identity x) x)
   (define home-vicinity (let ((home-path (getenv "HOME")))(lambda ()
   home-path)))

   make distclean; ./configure; make in the gnome-guile dir.
   That "worked for me". "
