Unfortunately there are some files that hardcode the srfi requirement.

Excellent!!  I'm glad you were able to work around this problem.

Yea, you need to 'rm -rf' the old install of GnuCash and then "gmake
install" again.  The problem is that you built GnuCash against
guile-1.4.  When you did so, it determined that it needed to install
some srfi (scheme) libraries.  Those libraries are not necessary for
guile-1.6, and indeed (as you have found) cause an error if they are
installed with guile-1.6.

So, basically, go remove the 'srfi' files from the gnucash scheme
library directory in your install tree and it should fix this problem.

Yea -- I've contacted Linas about it.
