1.8.6 build error

[Ben Isajiw]

Hi,

I apologize if this is wrong email list for my question.  Please provide 
correct list.

I try to build guile 1.8.6 as requirement for autogen as requirement for 
Anjuta.  First error was cannot find libltdl.so.7.  I don't know how to include 
my library directory in build (/usr/local/lib) so I copy libltdl.* to /usr/lib. 
 Then I can get past first error but get strange error as shown:

In file included from ../libguile/_scm.h:53,
                 from alist.c:24:
../libguile/numbers.h:362:2: error: #error sizeof(char) is not 1.
../libguile/numbers.h:383:2: error: #error sizeof(short) is not 1, 2, or 4.
../libguile/numbers.h:400:2: error: #error sizeof(int) is not 4 or 8.
../libguile/numbers.h:416:2: error: #error sizeof(long) is not 4 or 8.
../libguile/numbers.h:432:2: error: #error sizeof(scm_t_intmax) is not 4 or 8.
../libguile/numbers.h:460:2: error: #error sizeof(size_t) is not 4 or 8.
In file included from alist.c:24:
../libguile/_scm.h:147:4: error: #error sizeof(off_t) is not 4 or 8.
make[2]: *** [alist.x] Error 1

make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/Download/guile-1.8.6'
make: *** [all] Error 2

I don't think sizeof(char) is possibly not 1 so error is false.  I appreciate 
it greatly and kind regards.
