configure: error: libltdl not found.  See README.

from README:
Guile depends on the following external libraries.
- libgmp
- libiconv
- libintl
- libltdl
- libunistring
- libgc
- libffi
It will also use the libreadline library if it is available.  For each
of these there is a corresponding --with-XXX-prefix option that you
can use when invoking ./configure, if you have these libraries
installed in a location other than the standard places (/usr and
/usr/local).

above implies that option --with-libltdl-prefix should exist.

successful configure using:

env LDFLAGS="/usr/local/lib" ./configure
