-No change: @code{-lguile} should be added to the link command line,

address@hidden Compiling and Linking
+Use @code{guile-config} to pick up the flags required to compile C or
+C++ code that uses @code{libguile}, like so

address@hidden

+If you are using libtool to link your executables, just use
address@hidden in your link command.  Libtool will expand this into
+the needed linker options automatically.  If you are not using
+libtool, use the @code{guile-config} program to query the needed
+options explicitely.  A linker command like

address@hidden
+$(CC) -o prog prog.o `guile-config link`
address@hidden smallexample
+
+should be all that is needed.  To link shared libraries that will be
+used as Guile Extensions, use libtool to control both the compilation
+and the link stage.
