I've seen this problem a few times before.  In the past, this has been
caused by people having obsolete guile headers lying around on their
systems:  the headers, which reference symbols that no longer exist,
must be in a directory that gcc searches before the "correct" one.

(IIRC, scm_the_last_stack_fluid and scm_async_clock are symbols that
were last seen in the guile 1.3.x era.)
