Actually, you did just say you experienced problems on a failing
system: Athena...

We can easily provide access to a system with guile-1.6 and slib-3a2
installed on which to test, if that would help.

How can I get even a scheme backtrace when the error happens?  I asked
this back in my original email.  I might well be able to make inroads
if I can get even a backtrace.
