Gnucash 1.4.2 build problem

[Tom Corner]

Robert,

1000 thanks. I found libguile.so.6.0.0 in /usr/local/lib and it had the
missing identifiers too.  In the process, however,  I located a
spurious copy of libguile in /usr/local/gnome/lib.  I deleted these and
now the compile completes successfully and gnucash appears to be
working.

Thanks again,

Tom
