The total code is about 1300 lines of scheme.  I am using 
record types, arrays.  I am "use-modules" on syncase, lineio,
format, regex, string-fun, debug, format, slib (w/ printf). 

I am on sparc-solaris7, ultra5, compiled w/ gcc 2.95.2.

I have compiled guile-1.4.  I will update cvs and try that.

Cheers,
Matt
