That's with GCC 4.3, and a fix is going to appear in the next stable
version of Guile (1.8.5):

  
http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=guile.git;a=commitdiff;h=979eade6515559e3590f87f127d21172036f52a6

(Too bad Debian folks don't report bugs upstream...)

Using `-fgnu89-inline' (when available) has essentially the same effect
as this patch.

Furthermore, David is using 4.0, not 4.3:

  http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1099

GCC 4.0 does not implement C99 "extern inline", so the problem
encountered by David is actually similar but normally not related to the
"extern inline" semantics change, unless Apple has shipped a patched GCC
for all this time.

Thanks,
Ludovic.
