lang/guile 1.8.8 nb11 build failure

[Chavdar Ivanov <ci4ic4%gmail.com@localhost>]

Hi,

While guile-1.8.8.nb10 seems to be working just fine under -current, a
few weeks ago my latest rolling-replace log showed a failure whilst
building nb11 - a crash of the newly-built guile executable building
the library. The gdb trace is as follows:

....

One is able to actually complete the building of the package by
manually running the failed build command, but now with the new
just-created guile, instead using the executable from nb10. The
resulting package is - as expected - non-functional as well.

Any ideas?
