i have queried several nameservers over here in Germany but none
was able to resolve this hostname. Well, i couldn't even get information
for item.mx (using 'dig' or 'nslookup').

That worked, but i think there is a bug in the install script:
 
  CP FILES DIR 
  CHMOD DIR FILES

  FILES is "src/*scm " and DIR is the newly created directory that holds
  the scm files. CHMOD will fail since DIR FILES expands to 
  "/usr/local/share/guile/1.4/silex/src/*scm"

                                    this is wrong

P.S.: There's a Makefile.am in the cvs but neither a configure.in
      or other neccessary files.
