Problem compiling src/core-utils

For a long time I wanted to try a newer version of gnucash (>1.6). Now,
I finally got around apt-getting all packages and manually installing
g-wrap just to find that gnucash cannot compile. Gnucash is a very
arduous piece of software to install compared to what we are used. Maybe
someone can explain to me why there is so many dependencies? Why
external packages are not included with gnucash (like g-wrap)?

Anyway. Here is my problem.

make[3]: Entering directory
`/home/hdemers/src/gnucash-1.8.7/src/core-utils'
FLAVOR=gnome guile -c \
         "(set! %load-path (cons \"/usr/local/share/guile\" %load-path)) \
          (primitive-load \"./gw-core-utils-spec.scm\") \
          (gw:generate-wrapset \"gw-core-utils\")"
**** NOTE: this wrapset appears to be empty !?
ERROR: Unbound variable: gw:new-wrapset
make[3]: *** [gw-core-utils.c] Error 2
make[3]: Leaving directory
`/home/hdemers/src/gnucash-1.8.7/src/core-utils'


I'm using debian woody with all standard package. g-wrap is version
1.3.4. All other required package by gnucash were apt-get installed from
stable.

Thank you for your time,
Hugues
