Mac OS X doesn't link programs with shared libraries that contain
undefined symbols. It works fine on ELF system until the program
tries to call one of the routines with unresolve external references.
The "gnome-vfs" package has this problem a year ago.

What does "nm /usr/pkg/lib/lib<whathever-guile>.so | grep _scm_boot_guile"
print out under NetBSD?
