Hi Thomas, thanks a bunch. That was indeed it, and indeed afterwards, my
`csc -s hello.scm` works fine.

I'm cc'ing Vesa Kaihlavirta, who's listed as the current maintainer for
the Chicken package in Arch. Vesa, some of us on the Chicken Scheme
mailing list determined that successfully building and installing
Chicken 4.7.0 requires -j2, -j3, etc flags to be turned off in the
package() portion of the PKGBUILD script, as well as in the build()
portion. Also, the manual symlinking to the library at the end of the
current PKGBUILD can and should be deleted.

Here is my working PKGBUILD:

# Maintainer: Vesa Kaihlavirta <address@hidden>
# Contributor: <address@hidden>

pkgname=chicken
pkgver=4.7.0
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc='A compiler for R5RS scheme, featuring handy extensions'
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
url='http://www.call-with-current-continuation.org/'
license=('BSD')
depends=('gcc')
source=("http://code.call-cc.org/releases/${pkgver}/chicken-${pkgver}.tar.gz";)
md5sums=('9389388fdf04c3c64de29633aae12539')

build() {
  cd "${pkgname}-${pkgver}"

  # parallel builds are not supported..
  export MAKEFLAGS="${MAKEFLAGS/-j?/}"

  # some yummy make options there. check out README in the tarball.
  make PLATFORM=linux PREFIX=/usr
}

package() {
  cd "${pkgname}-${pkgver}"

  export MAKEFLAGS="${MAKEFLAGS/-j?/}"
  make PLATFORM=linux PREFIX=/usr DESTDIR="${pkgdir}" install
  install -D -m644 LICENSE "${pkgdir}/usr/share/licenses/${pkgname}/LICENSE"
}
