I just beat guile-gnome-platform-2.7.99 into building on FC5 with 
gcc-4.1.1, libgnome-2.14.1-1.fc5.1, and guile-1.6.7.

I found signedness warnings (which stop compilation due to -Werror)
in several places, and also a warn_unused_result attribute on write(2).

Attached is a short patch of what I inflicted on 
guile-gnome-platform-2.7.99 to make it compile for me.  It maybe worth a 
peek just in case these aren't all covered by the other patches.
