The guile support in gnubg is quite experimental and I've been told that
it only works with the bleeding edge CVS version of guile
(1.6.something).

If think the confusion is due to gnubg has gettext 0.10 whereas your own
system probably has gettext-something-newer. I tried to update to the
newest version, but didn't succeed. 

Can you try:

rm config.cache
./autogen.sh    (avoid running autoconf, autoheader etc)
./configure --without-guile --without-included-gettext
