I did try to fix the offending code for a few hours, without success. My
knowledge of guile is way too limited. I'll let someone else do it.

Meanwhile I did install guile-1.4.1 and cgen works as it should. BTW, I
was quite surprised to see that installation of this quite old software
(May 2002) did succeed without problems on my recent GNU/Linux distro.

Thanks,

Stelian.
