FWIW, I think I looked a while back at the possibility of detecting
stack direction at Guile runtime instead - where it is in principle
trivial - and then we'd no longer need this configure-time check. IIRC
it (runtime detection) looked like a quite straightforward change. I
didn't proceed at the time because the configure-time detection still
seemed to be easy and robust; but if that is now starting to become
untrue...
